Greece, a country with a Christian Orthodox majority, has made history by legalising same-sex marriage. This monumental change came after a parliamentary vote of 176-76 on Thursday, which also legally permits same-sex couples to adopt children. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has hailed the new law as a bold step towards eradicating a significant inequality.

Supporters of the Church have expressed their dissent through a protest rally in Athens. Same-Sex Marriages: Church of England Backs Plans For ‘Trial Blessings’ of Gay Weddings.
