Countries that legalize Gay Marriage in next decade

Ukraine; I would be shocked if they pass it as it tries to cozy up to the rest of Europe. Zelenskyy has begun working on a civil partnership bill so I could see that passing by years end. A 2022 poll had 53% supporting full or limited recognition of same-sex marriage

China; Also wouldn’t be shocked if it pases. They have a sorta of civil Union system under their “guardianship” laws, and Beijing has limited recognition of foreign performed marriages. If you trust public polling there, a majority support it.

I think of former USSR republics, Latvia will probably be next (Estonia already has) while Ukraine being fairly socially conservative is still a ways.  But probably being more western oriented will do so long before Russia if Russia ever does.

For China, I think more likely to happen in Hong Kong and Macau than mainland China but all are possible.

Latvia and Lithuania both do have limited recognition. If Zelynkyy’s civil union bill passes they’ll have more recognition than Lithuania.

Japan.

Absolutely and polls show over 70% for it thus probably comes sooner than later.  Germany had support at that level as was case where government behind public.  Italy also quite high.  Beyond those two and maybe a few micro countries in Western Europe, I suspect all others either have majority against or bare majority for and still quite polarizing.

Heres polling from last year

It shows Vietnam, Thailand, Hong Kong, Cambodia, and India have majorities in favor of gay marriage

Europe:

Greece is most obvious, but Liechtenstein likely comes later this year too.

You were correct (most folks here have probably already heard Greece legalized SSM):

May 16th: "This will allow Liechtenstein, like its neighbouring countries, to marry same-sex couples. The proposal will come into force at the beginning of next year"

I believe you mean Tunisia would be the first Arabic speaking country, not Muslim speaking country

The first Muslim-majority country to legalize SSM would probably be Albania or Kosovo.

Kosovo had a domestic partnership bill that was support by the PM just fail
