Spain allows gays to wed foreignersSpain's justice ministry ruled this week that citizens can marry a same-sex partner who is foreign, even if that person's home country would not legally recognize the marriage. The ruling was published Monday in the Official State Bulletin, according to international news reports. The action resolves the first snag in Spain's new law allowing same-sex couples to marry. Last month a gay Spanish man was denied the right to marry his Indian partner when a court in the northeastern Catalonia region ruled that the union would not be acceptable because India does not permit same-sex marriages. The country's justice ministry overruled, however, saying, "a marriage between a Spaniard and a foreigner, or between foreigners of the same sex resident in Spain, shall be valid as a result of applying Spanish material law, even if the foreigner's national legislation does not allow or recognize the validity of such marriages." Despite heavy opposition from the Roman Catholic Church, Spain legalized same-sex marriage at the end of June. Spain is one of four countries that grant full marriage rights to same-sex couples; the others are Belgium, Canada and the Netherlands.

Danski parlament je usvojio zakon kojim se istospolnim parovima omogućuje vjenčanje u Danskoj crkvi. Danska je 1989. bila prva zemlja svijeta koja je ozakonila istospolne brakove, a od 2009. dopustila im je i posvajanje djece. Novi zakon istospolnim parovima od 15. lipnja omogućuje vjenčanje po crkvenom obredu u Danskoj crkvi Danska crkva, bivšeg naziva Evangelička luteranska crkva u Danskoj, državna je i najmnogoljudnija crkvena zajednica u toj zemlji, pripada joj 80 posto stanovništva. Titularni joj je poglavar danski monarh. Biskupi Danske crkve do 15. lipnja moraju osmisliti novu ceremoniju vjenčanja za istospolne brakove jer je postojeća predviđena samo za heteroseksualne. Bez obzira što će im ceremonija biti drugačija, njihov će bračni status biti jednak. Danska premijerka Helle Thorning-Schmidt usvajanje ovog zakona nazvala je povijesnim činom. - Sviđa vam se članak?
