At the same time, Alexei Pushkov, head of the foreign policy committee in the lower chamber of the Russian Duma, was even more direct. "Information about the use by Assad of chemical weapons has been fabricated in the same place as the lies about [Saddam] Hussein's weapons of mass destruction" he said on Twitter.

New bills – passed just this week by the country’s lower house of Parliament and expected to be approved in the near future by the upper house of Parliament and signed into law by President Vladimir Putin – restrict the activities of non‐governmental organizations, criminalize public actions “committed to insult the religious feelings of believers” and outlaw activism by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) individuals and their supporters. I would note that the new law criminalizing “propaganda of non‐traditional sexual relations,” passed 436‐0 by the rubber stamp Duma this week, comes as much of the world marks Pride month."
