Among 49 countries Armenia is in the 47th place with 8%, in terms of LGBTI human rights protection.<\/p>\n<p>In order to create the country ranking, ILGA-Europe examines the laws and policies in 49 countries using a set of 69 criteria \u2013 divided between six thematic categories:\u00a0equality and non-discrimination; family; hate crime and hate speech; legal gender recognition and bodily integrity; civil society space; and asylum.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, the Armenian Ministry of Justice drafted a bill that would criminalize calls of violence in the country. The new draft law proposes to hold a person to account for \u201cmaking public calls of violence threatening the life or health of persons, publicly justifying violence threatening persons\u2019 life or health or advocating such violence.\u201d Although, the amendment has been adopted by the National assembly on 15 April 2020 without mention of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) as protected grounds.<\/p>\n<p>The two countries at the end of the Rainbow Europe scale are\u00a0Azerbaijan\u00a0(2%) and Turkey\u00a0(4%). Russia is higher than Armenia in the list with 10%, and the neighbor country Georgia has 30%. Turkey\u2019s score has been decreasing due to restrictions on freedom of assembly and association. Azerbaijan has also lost points over the past two years due to irregularities on legal gender recognition.<\/p>\n<p>Malta is again in the first place with 89%, followed by Belgium and Luxembourg with 73% and Denmark and Norway with 68%.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinkarmenia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rainbowmap-2020-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7731 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pinkarmenia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rainbowmap-2020-500x354.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"354\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinkarmenia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rainbowindex-2020-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7728 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pinkarmenia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/rainbowindex-2020-500x347.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"347\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On May 14, 2020, ILGA-Europe published the annual \u201cRainbow Map and Index\u201d, which ranks 49 European countries on their respective legal and policy practices for LGBTI people, from 0-100%.
