The highest court in the EU, the Court of Justice of the European Union, has ruled that all 27 members states of the union must allow all citizens to have photo ID that matches their “lived gender.” The ruling is sure to bring the differences between progressive globalism and traditional Europeanism to a head.

Specifically, the judgement targets countries such as Hungary, Slovakia, and Bulgaria, which do not permit the changing of sex on official IDs and reject the premises of gender ideology.
The case, C-43/24 Shipova, was brought by a transgender-identifying man in Italy, who has been trying for a decade to get his name and gender changed on official documents. The Bulgarian courts have denied this requests. In 2023, the Bulgarian Supreme Court issued a binding interpretation stating that lower courts cannot permit LGR; this followed a 2021 Constitutional Court ruling affirming that “sex” is biological and that the LGBT concept of “gender” does not exist in Bulgarian law.
