" In future, those found guilty of "promoting homosexuality among minors" in Russia could be fined between 4,000 and 50,000 rubles (100 to 1,250 euros, or $135 to $1,700). Organizations could be fined over 10,000 euros. That's according to a law draft that was passed with 388 votes by the Russian parliament in its first reading on January 25, 2013."
" The Council of Europe has criticized the legislation, saying that local ordinances in St. Petersburg and other Russian cities have been used to imprison homosexuals and bisexuals. The ordinances violate not only freedom of speech, but also the freedom of the press, the council said. "
" "There is no legal definition in the Russian law of what constitutes 'propaganda of homosexuality' and the law could be interpreted very loosely," Amnesty's David Diaz-Jogeix said. The human rights organization fears that "promoting" could be arbitrarily interpreted and then used to discriminate against LGBT people. "
