Activists demonstrate in favour of rights for gay couples, in Rome on Jan. 23, 2016. Italian opposition politicians and gay right activists on Tuesday decried as a step backward moves by Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni’s far-right-led government to limit recognition of parental rights to the biological parent only in the case of same sex-parents. The city of Milan has been told to stop officially recording both parents in same-sex couples on city registers, the last major city in Italy to do so after a smattering of administrations had briefly embraced the practice of recognizing both parents regardless of sexual orientation.
