No shit, Sherlock.

Opposition to the LGBT movement is very prevalent in Russia, including within the Kremlin. President Vladimir Putin enacted laws in 2012 which criminalised gay propaganda. It banned telling minors that homosexuality was normal or natural. This was opposed by some Western nations with many members of the public in the U.S. and Western Europe calling for a boycott of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. However President Putin assured that all athletes would be respected, regardless of their sexuality and in the event, no boycott occurred.
