The Washington Blade recently published an opinion piece by 2019 Advocate Mariano Ruiz of Argentina about the upcoming WorldPride DC 2025. Mariano writes: "If we set the precedent that global LGBTQI+ events cannot happen under right-wing or anti-LGBTQI+ governments, we will effectively disqualify a growing list of countries from hosting. That includes not only the U.S. under Trump, but Hungary, Italy, Uganda, Poland — and even my own country, Argentina, under Javier Milei. Yet ILGA World still plans to convene its 2027 conference in Buenos Aires, and rightly so.
