Hillary Clinton Declares 'gay Rights Are Human Rights' by expensive007(m): 6:21am On Dec 07, 2011
"It should never be a crime to be gay" Mrs Clinton said at the
United Nations in Geneva, adding that a country's cultural or
religious traditions was no excuse for discrimination.
Her audience included representatives from countries where
homosexuality is a criminal offence.
Many ambassadors rushed out of the room as soon as Mrs
Clinton finished speaking, the Associated Press news agency
reported.
'Human reality'
The announcement, cited by the White House as the "first US
government strategy to combat human rights abuses against
gays and lesbians abroad", is also being seen as part of the
Obama administration's outreach to gays and lesbians ahead of
the 2012 election.
The official memorandum does not outline consequences for
countries with poor records on gay rights. But it allows US
agencies working abroad to consult with international
organisations on discrimination.
"Gay people are born into and belong to every society in the
world," Mrs Clinton said in Geneva. "Being gay is not a Western
invention. It is a human reality."
