Uganda's Museveni wants 'rehabilitation' measures in anti-LGBTQ legislation

Description

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said he would sign some of the world's harshest anti-LGBTQ legislation once provisions are added to "rehabilitate" gay people, vowing not to cede to international pressure. Museveni told lawmakers at a meeting on Thursday that he supports the bill they passed last month but would send it back to parliament for "strengthening".
