Estonian parliament passed a law, which legalizes same-sex marriages and relaxes the possibility for gay parents to adopt children.
The Riigikogu, Estonia’s Parliament, passed a new law which legalizes marriage for same-sex couples, thus becoming the first post-Soviet country to do so. That this happened in the month of June, which is generally when most Pride parades take place around the world, is also highly symbolic and poignant.
