The Verkhovna Rada supported in the first reading draft law No. 15294 «On Amendments to the Criminal Code of Ukraine to Strengthen Responsibility for the Production and Distribution of Child Pornography.»
231 MPs voted «yes».
At the same time, as is known, the provisions of this bill also provide for the decriminalization of adult pornography.
Recall that on May 28, the bill on the decriminalization of pornography in Ukraine did not receive the required number of votes in the Verkhovna Rada. The deputies also did not support sending it for a second reading.
After that, the initiator of the bill, Yaroslav Zheleznyak, together with several dozen other people’s deputies, registered a new bill, which, along with the decriminalization of the production of adult content, also provides for strengthening the fight against child pornography.
