In response to pleas from human rights groups, the International Olympic Committee released a statement to Windy City Times yesterday acknowledging the passage of anti-gay laws in Russia and calling for the acceptance of all athletes.
"The International Olympic Committee is clear that sport is a human right and should be available to all regardless of race, sex or sexual orientation," the statement said. "The Games themselves should be open to all, free of discrimination, and that applies to spectators, officials, media and of course athletes. We would oppose in the strongest terms any move that would jeopardize this principle.”
