"Excerpt: In a letter to Commissioner Thomas Hammarberg, Buddhist,
Muslim, Russian Orthodox and Jewish leaders referred to "so-called

They argued that as the majority of Russians think lesbian, gay,
bisexual and trans people commit sins "damaging human dignity" they
do not have the rights others do."
