The Supreme Court in the Russian region of Tatarstan has rejected an appeal against an order to deport Chinese citizen Haoyang Xu over “LGBT propaganda.” The 21-year-old, who is in the country on a student visa, shared video content about his life with his boyfriend on social media. Xu and his Russian partner Gela Gogishvili, who is 23, drew the attention of Russian law enforcement in late February, when the police received a complaint about their video channels. The vlogger duo recorded footage of themselves, including some showing themselves half-naked and cuddling and kissing in bed. The videos were shared with tens of thousands of subscribers on TikTok, Telegram, and YouTube.
