Trump’s orders rolled back; Foreign Secretary Antony Blinken: “Pride” flags are supposed to show “solidarity”
LGBT activists are cheering US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s announcement that he will reverse an order from President Donald Trump and hang “Pride” flags at US embassies around the world.
The magazine Outfront reports on this decision:
“The Biden administration is off to a hopeful start, as Secretary of State nominee, Antony Blinken, has confirmed a recommitment to LGBTQ rights. In a memo from July 2020, former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper released a list of flags permitted to be displayed at U.S. military bases. Missing from the list was the LGBTQ pride flag, which Esper compared to the confederate flag. Prior to the ban, embassies raised the flag during pride month on the official embassy flagpole.”
Blinken claimed without evidence that violence against gays increased while Trump was in office.
“Biden is the first US president to openly embrace a whole range of queer rights, including transgender equality,” Outfront magazine said .
