The politician is sure that Russian-called homophobic laws in the future will support many of his colleagues from the West.

"The EU - it's all some kind of cradle of the expansion, which carries a different evil in the EU. Look, as now attack Russia, it passed a law prohibiting the promotion of homosexual relations. And I do not want to give in to this pressure and sustain his line, "- continued the policy.
