Chinese student and vlogger Xui Haoyang has fled Russia after a court in the Republic of Tatarstan found him guilty of violating Russia's law on promoting homosexuality, often called the gay propaganda law, and ordered his deportation. The Xgay.ru website said on April 25 that European LGBT groups helped the 21-year-old Xui and his Russian partner, Gela Gogishvili, to leave Russia for an unspecified country a day earlier. The two men, who resided in Tatarstan's capital, Kazan, have been under pressure for openly talking about their relationship in their video blog.
