State Duma Deputy Mikhail Romanov commented on the initiation of an administrative case for promoting non-traditional sexual relations against the TNT TV channel, which was caused by the kiss of two men on the air of the “Game” show. He assessed the decision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in a conversation with “Lenta.ru”.
“As a deputy, it is important for me that the violation has been established and the law is working. I am sure that this will serve as a signal for the management of the TV channel to more closely monitor the selection of the content that they show and that our teenagers can watch, ”Romanov said.
According to him, it is necessary for the law to work, and the competent authorities held accountable those who committed the offense. The deputy also expressed confidence that it is extremely important that the minds of Russian adolescents should not be disturbed by “various Western trends and technologies.”
“It all starts with a little propaganda. Therefore, I believe that we should cut such trends at the root. Today it’s humor, tomorrow it’s propaganda, ”the parliamentarian said. In conclusion, he added that there is a clear line established by law on what constitutes propaganda.
It became known earlier on Tuesday, November 9, that a case was opened against TNT for an administrative offense under Article 6.21 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation (“Promotion of non-traditional sexual relations among minors”).
The reason was the release of the show “Game” with a kiss of two men, aired on TNT on October 3. During the program, comedian Denis Dorokhov, wearing a bride’s dress and a wig, kissed his Kamyzyaki teammate Alexander Panekin, who was playing the groom. After the show was released, State Duma deputies, including Romanov, announced their intention to apply to the prosecutor’s office because of the demonstration of the kiss of men.
