Poland recognises same-sex marriages, sees rush for weddings organised abroad • FRANCE 24 English

Poland is one of the most restrictive countries in Europe for LGBT rights. Neither marriages nor civil partnerships for same-sex couples are legal there. But as of late May, Poland has legalised the recognition of same-sex marriages performed in third countries. The change comes after the European Court of Justice ruled that Warsaw was in contravention of EU free movement laws if it withdrew rights that couples had acquired in another country. As a result, Polish same-sex couples have been rushing to organise weddings outside the country. FRANCE 24's Adrien Sarlat reports, with Gulliver Cragg.
