Activists and members of the LGBT community in Serbia gathered today to honor the Orlando victims and expressed their solidarity in achieving equality, freedom, and secuirty. The representative of the US embassy thanked on the support and stated that we all must work together to eradicate hate and discrimination to ensure that the Orlando masacre will not repeat any where in the world.
