Federal Chamber 56K1818 Foreign policy Under consideration

Proposal for stronger action against the criminalisation of homosexuality worldwide

Official title: Voorstel van resolutie betreffende de strafbaarstelling van homoseksualiteit in de meerderheid van de moslimlanden.

Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)

In plain language

  • The proposal asks the federal government to challenge countries that punish homosexuality, demand explanations from their ambassadors, and immediately stop all development aid to them.
  • Belgian diplomacy, aid organisations, and Belgium's partner countries would notice this in foreign policy and funding.
  • For you, nothing changes at home, but travel advice for those countries could become stricter and information for asylum applications would be updated.
