More than ten lakhs of Europeans call “conversion treatments” to ban LGBT+
The petition, which is supported by public figures such as Singer Angel and former French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal, has now been detained to publicly respond to the European Commission.
According to the results of the citizens’ initiative on Friday, more than one million Europeans defended the ban on “conversion treatments” for LGBT+ people in the continent.
As the European Commission has to respond publicly to the petition, many people from the cultural and political world have signed Belgian singer Angel and former French Prime Minister Gabriel Atal.
“Exchange treatments” claim to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity, especially when homosexuality is equal to a disease.
They can cause the appearance of exorcism sessions, training courses, or the appearance of electrochochem therapy, in many abuse that has psychological and eternal physical consequences, people, often young people, victims.
“Conversion therapy should be banned throughout Europe”, the famous artist defended Angel, revealed that she was in contact with a woman in 2020.
“A brave petition has been released to ban transplantation across Europe. It is only a few hours to sign it,” Gabriel Atal warned on Thursday.
He was the first head of French government to publicly discuss his homosexuality and is now the leader of the Renaissance.
According to the ILGA Association, transplant treatment is prohibited only in eight European Union countries: France, Belgium, Cyprus, Germany, Malta, Portugal, Spain and Greece.
The campaign is likely to “move objects”, which is expected to be in the 21 -year French student Matto Gargu, who started the initiative.
More than one million signatures
Until Friday afternoon, more than a million signatures were collected, the required limit of 27 EU countries.
But there is no bond to this mechanism: Although the Commission needs to respond, nothing will force her to turn this initiative into a new European legal law.
In the European Union, the European Commission has sought the European Commission to propose a legal ban of exchange methods prescribed at LGBTQ+.
The European Commissioner, Hadza Labib’s voices for equality, without commenting on the concrete, expresses voice, “Shame on these methods, which can lead to shame and sometimes suicide.”
In September, the committee chairman, Ursula Van Der Leen, ordered her to set up a strategy after 2025, “LGBTQI’s equality”.
This strategy should focus on the “conversion treatment method” especially.
