    Putin mocks U.S. embassy for flying rainbow flag

    MOSCOW (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin on Friday mocked the U.S. embassy in Moscow for flying a rainbow flag to celebrate LGBT rights, suggesting it reflected the sexual orientation of its staff.

    His comments followed a nationwide vote on constitutional reforms that included an amendment enshrining the definition of marriage specifically as a union between a man and a woman.
    Putin said the U.S. embassy’s move to raise the LGBT pride flag “revealed something about the people that work there”.
    “It’s no big deal though. We have spoken about this many times, and our position is clear,” said Putin, who has sought to distance Russia from liberal Western values and aligned himself with the Russian Orthodox Church.
    “Yes, we passed a law banning the propaganda of homosexuality among minors. So what? Let people grow up, become adults and then decide their own destinies.”

    Putin said during the campaign to change the constitution that he would not let the traditional notion of a mother and father be subverted by what he called “parent number 1” and “parent number 2”.

    This will give leftists even more fuel to hate Putin and further justify a war with Russia (at least in the eyes of the leftists).

    Left/moderate Left messaging about Russia has escalated in recent years but so far rhetotric translation to war policy shifts has been somewhat tamed, in all fairness.

    As for Putin's latest criticism of US embassy, he may have won a battle in media publicity/boosting his power but he hasn't won the war.
