New Flag Just Dropped: European Capital Adds Ukrainian Colours to Pride
The official organisers of a European capital city’s pride parade have added the Ukrainian yellow and blue colours to their rainbow flag.
Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride, one of the principal organisers of the annual gay pride parade in Ireland’s capital city, has seemingly decided to add the colours of the Ukrainian flag to the ever-evolving rainbow flag.
While Ireland as a nation is on paper neutral when it comes to military conflicts involving third-party nations, government bigwigs at both the local and national levels have been keen to be seen as taking a side when it comes to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, with Dublin authorities hanging Ukrainian flags off of countless lamp posts in the capital.
Such pro-Ukraine efforts seem to have now extended to gay rights campaigning, with the official website of Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride — an organisation funded and sponsored by a combination of government organisations and private enterprises — using a version of the rainbow flag which includes the Ukrainian flag’s colours as the banner image for this year’s “March & Parade”.
