Greece Plans to Legalize Same-Sex Marriage Soon, Premier Mitsotakis Says ( www.bloomberg.com )

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said that his country is close to allowing same-sex couples to marry and to adopt children.

“What we will legislate is marriage equality. That is, the elimination of any discrimination based on sexual orientation in the matter of entering into a marriage,” Mitsotakis said Wednesday in an interview with state-run ERT television. Current discussions on the framework of the legislation “won’t take long,” and the draft law will be presented in more detail in the coming days, he said.

He kinda had to make a statement like that cause his main political opponent is openly gay and recently wed his long-term partner.

The rapid ascent of Stefanos Kasselakis, a former Goldman Sachs trader and Greece’s first openly gay party leader, has gripped the nation. But his leadership is dividing the country’s main opposition party.

He is Greece’s first openly gay party leader, and recently wed his long-term partner, an American emergency-room nurse, in Brooklyn while pressing for the legalization of same-sex marriage in Greece.
