"Russian President Vladimir Putin is writing about international norms and equality now, with his sights on Syria. In the run-up to the Olympics — and with those words in mind — attention will soon turn back to his own country's anti-LGBT laws and environment. "

In an op-ed he wrote for The New York Times on Syria he wrote: "We are all different, but when we ask for the Lord's blessings, we must not forget that God created us equal". Afterwards, Nancy Pelosi and others called Putin out on his hypocrisy.
