US Threatens Uganda With Economic Response Over Anti-LGBTQ Bill
Sputnik News ^ | 3/23/23 | Roman Sanin

Uganda is on the verge of prohibiting any kind of homosexual activities in the country, including punishing those who identify themselves as gay. The country's authorities say the law will protect cultural, religious and family values.

Washington has threatened Uganda with economic "repercussions," if the African country passes a new bill concerning legal accountability for homosexual activities.

"We would have to take a look at whether or not there might be repercussions that we would have to take, perhaps in an economic way, should this law actually get passed – enacted," John Kirby, National Security Council spokesman, said during a press briefing this week.

The 2023 Anti-Homosexuality Bill that was recently discussed by the Ugandan parliament would introduce punishment for people who identify themselves as gay, including capital punishment in specific cases. Such cases, for instance, include sexual relations involving those infected with HIV and underage minors.

The next step for the bill to become a law is the president’s approval.

Initially, the Anti-Homosexuality Bill was proposed by Asuman Basalirwa, a member of the country’s parliament, earlier this month.

According to the lawmaker, the bill purports to protect cultural, religious and family values of the Ugandan people "from acts that are likely to promote sexual promiscuity in this country."

We are the (neo) Marxists now - spreading a perverse, anti-human, globalist ideology, by coercion and subversion.

Weaponization of the dollar is EXACTLY what other countries are trying to get away from. Sanction enough countries and they will play with some other currency.

Today it’s easier to find true Christians in Africa than in just about any other part of the world.

So much for Blinken, Biden, Kirby, etc, saying that nations are “sovereign.”

Aren’t we interfering with the internal politics of other countries? That’s “bad” when the Russians and Chinese do it, yes no maybe perhaps?

Is it any wonder traditional societies fear and are fleeing from the woke green pervo globalists? Remember when the United States was a shining city on hill? Now we are woke, perverted Gomorrah wallowing in our own filth. At least the US hasn’t sent troops or arms to Uganda to enforce its global perversions, not yet.

This from the side that keeps talking about democracy. They are all for it until a country actually employs it.
