Message The US will “promote” the idea of transgender transition among children
In the Russian segment of social networks they add that the American oligarchic clan is promoting the topic of transgender transition among children and making money from it. And they include Penny Pritzker among such “crooks”, who, they say, began to “look after” Ukraine and will soon introduce her reforms.
VoxCheck specialists examined such a case and explained that Penny Pritzker is the US Special Representative for the Economic Recovery of Ukraine and will not be involved in carrying out medical reforms. Also, the Ukrainian authorities did not announce their intention to change the rules of transgender transition.
Ukraine's international partners, such as the United States and the EU, have also not publicly called for changes to policies on transgender transition for children. But the partners are calling for combating discrimination against the LGBT community in Ukraine, such as including punishment for inciting hatred or violence based on sexual orientation or gender identity in Article 161 of the Criminal Code, and for improving the representation of women at all levels of political and public life.
