The EHF is happy to see steps are being taken to ensure that all European citizens have the right to love and express themselves as they see fit. We cannot allow EU countries to discriminate against part of the EU population, these are not European values.

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Europe will never allow parts of our society to be stigmatised.
