... This was seen in the EU as an abuse of human rights. During the Dutch-Russian Bilateral Year, LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) rights became a field of conflict and resulted in some diplomatic scandals (Ociepka, 2019), as expressed in an article by Jansen (2016) on the Dutch case.
