Ukraian gay muny was prepared neher for such kd of polil propaganda nor for mocratic stggle for own rights. Frh tablished gay liberatn groups such as Lilia Taranenko’s “Hanymed” Kiev or Oxana Bocharnikova’s Foundatn Kharkov (aka “Pk Panther Group”) haven’t ga any thory among gay populatn bee of s fear to be exposed.

Yet that anizatn’s Statute barely mentned gay men and lbians and emphasized the problem of AIDS.

This was typil of the gay liberatn Ukrae.
