The UK government is to give extra funding for gay rights campaigners in Russia amid growing concerns over the introduction of legislation outlawing the promotion of homosexuality.
In an interview for the BBC, Culture Secretary Maria Miller said it was the "right thing to do".

"It's very important indeed we use the opportunity of the Winter Games to underline the importance of treating people fairly, which is at the heart of the Olympic charter and important to the Olympic movement," said Mrs Miller.

She also dismissed concerns her announcement of extra support might be seen as provocative by the government of Russian president Vladimir Putin.

"I think it's important that we state very clearly as a country we believe in freedom of speech and we believe in universal human rights," said Mrs Miller.

"These are issue we don't shy away from. I think this is a great opportunity. This sort of support will be very welcome from Britain."
