Caitlin Cahow insists that she does not plan to speak out on gay rights issues in Sochi while she is part of the US delegation.

Two-time Olympic medallist Caitlin Cahow has insisted that she does not plan to take part in any protests against Russia's controversial ban on 'gay propaganda' during her stay in Sochi.

The 28-year-old open gay former ice hockey player is part of the US delegation for the 2014 Winter Olympics.

"I don't," she told WBUR when asked if she planned to speak about gay rights issues in Sochi. "I'm going to be in Russia representing my country, representing myself.

"And I think that my presence there is far more indicative than any words I could possibly say of how many great strides our nation has made in the last few years, just in my lifetime alone. "

The opening ceremony of the Sochi Games was held at the Fisht Olympic Stadium on Friday.
