The draft bill to allow same-sex marriages was unveiled on Thursday for a process of public consultation lasting until January 31.
The same-sex marriage bill "seeks the equal treatment of all citizens," Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Wednesday during a cabinet meeting.
Speaking of the bill, which was presented in greater detail by State Minister Akis Skertsos, Mitsotakis said it focused "on protecting the children of homosexual parents that already exist; these children must have the same rights as all other children."
