"To remain silent was not an option for me"

Quote:

Xavier Bettel, who is the first openly-gay prime minister to ever be re-elected for a second term, did not shy away from discussing homophobia at the summit between the EU and the Arab League. Indeed, Bettel brought a room to silence when he reminded those present that he is married to a man and if he lived in some of the countries represented at the summit, he would face the death penalty for his sexuality. The statesman confronted those countries with their homophobia by being present at the summit and highlighting his sexuality.
