Russian Boycott - Keith Pascoe

There have been calls to boycott Russia’s winter Olympics in 2014 due to a recent so called anti-gay law signed by Vladimir Putin in June.

And there have also been concerns raised over increases in attacks against gay people.

On these shores, a member the RTÉ Vanbrugh Quartet has taken his own stand on the situation and has withdrawn from the Irish Russian Chamber Music festival.
