The situation for Queers in the Ukraine as well as Russia and several other East European states is in critical condition;anti-gay laws passing and wanting to be passed, as well as massive amounts public hate lead to the inevitable conclusion that the Queer rights organizations there are going to have to align themselves with the anti-fascist movement and become much more militant.

Do you know where I could find some reliable statistics about hate crimes in Easter Europe?
