Remarks to progress by Liga (last modified Dec 31, 2024):
The European Commission’s LGBTIQ Equality Strategy 2020-2025 calls for an end to this „genital mutilation of intersex people (see: here). International organisations, including the UN, the European Parliament and the European Commission, also support the end of these practices. Other European countries such as Malta, Greece and Germany have already passed corresponding laws.
