Volodin called the law on same-sex marriage in the United States a way to “degenerate the nation”

The legalization of same-sex marriages at the federal level in the United States will lead to “the degeneration of the nation,” says State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin. Such a statement he published in your Telegram channel.

“[Президент США Джо] Biden signed legislation legalizing same-sex marriage at the federal level. Now in the United States, the concept of marriage as a union between a man and a woman does not exist. Ordinary families will not be easy in the empire of sodom that the United States has become. <...> The path chosen by Washington will unequivocally lead to big problems in American society and the degeneration of the nation,” the statement said.

Volodin stressed that over the past seven years, the number of same-sex marriages has increased by 2.5 times, and the number of gender reassignment surgeries in ten years has increased by 50 times.

December 12 Biden signed Respect for Marriage Act, a law legalizing same-sex marriage in the United States at the federal level. This document invalidates the law of 1996, according to which marriage is only the union between a man and a woman. This phrase is contained in the new version of the Russian Constitution of 2020.

On December 5, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law introducing heavy administrative fines for promoting non-traditional sexual relations, pedophilia and gender reassignment among people of any age. Violation of the law can result in a fine of up to 10 million rubles. Foreigners and stateless persons for such violations will be expelled from the country.
