Georgia's parliament is considering a bill that would ban the registration of same-sex marriages, transgender or non-traditional adoptions, medical gender reassignment procedures, and "LGBT propaganda." The adoption of the document is expected in the fall.

The Iraqi parliament has passed a bill amending the 1988 anti-prostitution law. According to it, same-sex relations are punishable by up to 15 years, and promotion of LGBT activities is punishable by up to 7 years. The new law also sets penalties for transgender people and doctors who perform such surgeries.
