The Russian Government Condemns The Olympics Ceremony In France, Calling It “One Giant Gay Parade”
The Russian government has condemned the French olympics ceremony, calling it “one giant gay parade,” as we read in the Moscow Times:
Russia on Saturday slammed the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games as a “massive failure”.
Foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova gave a long list of shortcomings at Friday’s ceremony, which was not broadcast live on Russian television.

Zakharova picked on a part of the opening ceremony featuring drag queens, interpreted by some as parodying The Last Supper. She called it a “mockery of a sacred story for Christians”, saying that “the Apostles were shown as transvestites”.
“Evidently in Paris they decided that if the Olympic rings are multi-colored, you can turn it all into one giant gay parade,” she added.
A spokesman for the Russian Orthodox Church, Vakhtang Kipshidze, also condemned this section, writing on his personal Telegram channel that it was “cultural and historical suicide”.
