On the occasion of today's World Day against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, the Minister of Justice and Public Order Ms. Anna Koukkidi Prokopiou stresses that the respect and promotion of LGBTI rights and the elimination of all forms of discrimination against the LGBTI community are a priority and a key element of our policies and actions at all levels.
We are firm supporters of the human rights of LGBTI people. We are advocates of their equal treatment and demonstrate zero tolerance towards any kind of prejudice, discrimination, unequal treatment or violence.
Guided by the principles and values of equality, respect for dignity and diversity, we support and will continue to support the right of every individual to free expression, self-determination and equal treatment. The injustices and discrimination that, unfortunately, even nowadays these fellow citizens suffer must finally be eliminated. If we must take anything from today, it is our obligation to build an open and inclusive society where every individual can define his or her identity and freely express their personality without barriers, violence, discrimination and exclusion.
Towards this end we will continue to work, making every effort to protect and promote the rights of LGBTI people.
