Reform gave in to the E200 and SDE demand, and seems they got a big part of their economy-related policies accepted as a reward.
Unless there is a major backtracking, Estonia will be the 2nd former Eastern Block country and 1st ex-USSR one to legalize same-sex marriage!
Edit: I am obviously aware that Estonia wasn’t voluntarily in the Eastern /Socialist/Communist block or whatever you want to call it. It is still an important statistic because half a century of Russian/Soviet direct or indirect occupation shaped the societies of these countries in many ways, and a domino effect was that they haven’t legalized same-sex marriage (Slovenia is the only one so far).
Good. Will this get the ball rolling in other “Central” European countries?
Hell yeah! Proud of my country!
Are they making it mandatory?
Me thinking it was already existing in most of the European Union : What
Is gay marriage not an EU thing already? it’s a pretty basic right
Great stuff, we need more tolerance and love in the world.
Also, give them divorce inharitance rules and child suport obligations !
