An article was unexpectingly political: it is about a tournament with all players from top-10 except for those who are Russians, an article starts with bashing Russians and ends with bashing Russians? It even manages to mention Putin several times. Is it what competitive chess about?
- jpatokal 12y agoI don't see any bashing on "Russians". I do see bashing on FIDE and Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, who is fairly widely acknowledged to be Putin's lapdog.
