‘If you in your countries you’ve chosen to promote anal sex that is your business but leave us alone’

SOUNDBITES — “I have been receiving a number of friends from outside Uganda telling me that we should go slow on the rights of people who promote anal sex. And I’m telling them, ‘Well, if you in your countries you’ve chosen to promote anal sex that is your business but leave us alone.'” — Uganda’s Ethics Minister James Nsaba Buturo, rebuffing threats from aid-donating nations and moving ahead with plans to criminalize same-sex sex.

For what it’s worth, Buturo also “accused the United Nations of a secret plot to spread homosexuality.”
