US President Barack Obama has hailed the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down a law defining marriage as between a man and a woman – a major victory for supporters of gay marriage.
“The laws of our land are catching up to the fundamental truth that millions of Americans hold in our hearts: when all Americans are treated as equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free,” he said in a statement issued by the White House.
The Supreme court had ruled in favour of gay marriage, with supporters of same-s*x marriage celebrating their triumph all over the country.
