Italy: Ban on birth registration of same-sex couples' children, LGBT flags waving on the streets

These days in the European country of Italy, the government is being strongly opposed to the verdict on gay couples. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has issued an order banning birth registration of children of same-sex couples. The order restricted the rights of same-sex parents.

Protests in italy

Since this decision of the government, the LGBT community in Italy has been protesting on a large scale. Hundreds of people have taken to the streets in Milan for the rights of gays. Protesters also waved LGBT flags across the city to show their anger at the government's decision. 

Same-sex couples were allowed to adopt children

Some Italian courts have ruled in favor of allowing same-sex couples to adopt each other's children. In addition, Milan recognized the registration of surrogate children for same-sex couples. Despite legalizing same-sex unions in 2016, Italy has refrained from allowing same-sex couples to adopt because of objections from the Catholic Church. Protesters called the move unjust and held demonstrations throughout Milan, waving flags and placards. 

Anti-LGBT community - Georgia Meloni

Explain that Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni came to power as a guardian of traditional Christian customs. She also strongly condemned the LGBT community. Elie Schlein, the recently elected head of the centre-left Democratic Party, was also present at the protest. He is one of the opposition politicians who, along with many of the protesters, have vented their anger at the administration.
