Defense and Security Committee members talk to Gay Straight Alliance representatives

On 21 July, at the National Assembly House, the members of the Committee on Defense and Security met with representatives of the Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) at their initiative.



On 21 July, at the National Assembly House, the members of the Committee on Defense and Security met with representatives of the Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) at their initiative.

The conversation revolved around the violence reduction strategy and discrimination against LGBT persons in Serbia, ensuring their right to free association and possibilities to carry out the first successful Pride Parade in Serbia. The Gay Straight Alliance representatives believe that a successful Pride Parade necessitates concrete cooperation with state authorities and institutions, and stress that they expect the Committee on Defense and Security to make specific recommendations to the competent state authorities so as to ensure full safety of the participants.

The Committee members endorsed the Pride Parade and announced that the state would do all in its power to ensure the security of the gathering. That will, according to the Committee members, send a clear message that Serbia has reached European standards in the respect of human and minority rights and freedoms.

At the end of the meeting, it was also agreed that deputy Marko Djurisic, Committee member, take part in the task group to tackle the organisation of the gathering.

The meeting was chaired by the Committee Deputy Chairman, Dusan Bajatovic.
