Macedonia: Same-Sex Marriage Ban Will Entrench Discrimination

This Country Just Made Same-Sex Marriage Illegal

The Macedonian Parliament’s approval of a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage will further entrench discrimination in the country, Amnesty International said today.

The amendment, passed today, defines marriage as a union solely between a woman and a man, which the government claimed will “affirm, promote and protect” a traditional foundation of society. This effectively bans same-sex marriage, discriminating against same-sex couples.
