World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported34m ago
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights has formally requested that the Portuguese government and several political parties, including the PSD, CDS, and CHEGA, withdraw their respective draft bills concerning gender identity. The appeal seeks to halt the legislative proposals currently under consideration by these political groups.
In response to the UN request, André Ventura, leader of the right-wing CHEGA party, has stated that his party will not withdraw its proposed legislation. Ventura characterized the UN's intervention as an unusual appeal, maintaining his party's commitment to moving forward with their draft bill despite the international body's call for its removal.
