Etlot edited an entry in Russia.
Homosexual activity: from 1993 to now.
Homosexual activity is legal in most of Russia, however, "anti-gay sentiments remain high." Though its illegal in Chechnya (punishable by caning on the first two offence and execution on the third offence). On June 29, 2013, Russia was criticized internationally after a law passed that banned "propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations."

Same-sex marriage: Civil unions from Dec 12, 2020 to now.
Since 2020, legal cases have set precedent for civil unions in Bolivia after a gay couple has achieved a legally recognized civil union. The couple, together for more than 11 years, took their case to court. While the Bolivian Constitution still does not contemplate same sex unions, the couple argued successfully the prohibition violated international human rights standards and constituted discrimination under Bolivian law.

Homosexual activity: Legal from Dec 16, 1830 to now.
Shortly after Brazil gained independence from Portugal, in 1830, the Imperial Penal Code decriminalized sodomy. Brazil's 1988 Constitution further strengthened affirmative protections by prohibiting any form of discrimination. Since then courts have since affirmed this additionally applies to sexual orientation.
