Concerns And Controversies At The 2014 Winter Olympics
There have been controversies and concerns affecting the 2014 Winter Olympics. The major disputes are with Circassians, who demand the events be cancelled or moved unless Russia apologies for the 19th century deaths that the Circassians regard to be a genocide, environmental and economic issues, lack of political stability and governance and the safety and human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) athletes, supporters and journalists, in light of global protests of Russian anti-gay laws. A number of politicians have announced that they intend to boycott the Olympics in protest of Russia's human rights record.
