(Mowscow, Russia) - Few gay organizations belonging to the scanty so called LGBTnet published yesterday a statement against the deputy of State Duma Alexey Mitrofanov from Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR) who recently supported the idea of the gay pride march in Moscow. This statement signed also by some leftist groups condemns any cooperation with Mr. Mitrofanov and blames Moscow gay pride organizers for this. The statement says Mr. Mitrofanov doesn’t care about gay march and intends only to “have a permission for visits to Europe”. Mr. Mitrofanov is called also “nationalist” in the statement. In fact Mitrofanov’s opponents dislike not his political believes but rather his support of Moscow gay march – a unique attitude among Russian politicians and deputies.
