"Greece Set to Legalize Same-Sex Marriage Despite Opposition"

Greece is on the verge of legalizing same-sex marriage, with a parliamentary vote scheduled for this week. The bill, introduced by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, faces opposition from members of his own party and the powerful Greek Orthodox Church. If passed, Greece would become the first Christian Orthodox-majority country in Europe to have marriage equality. Same-sex couples would also be allowed to adopt children, but surrogacy would remain restricted to heterosexual couples. The proposed legislation has sparked a societal divide, with supporters advocating for equal rights and opponents expressing concerns about traditional family values.
