Georgia's ruling party on Monday proposed a draft law sharply limiting LGBT rights in the South Caucasus country, which received European Union candidate status last year.
According to a summary published by the governing Georgian Dream party, the draft law would ban sex changes and adoption by same-sex couples, as well as prohibiting "gatherings aimed at popularising same-sex family or intimate relationships."
