Today is a sad day for chess. Russia 🇷🇺 has managed to break the international sanctions and will today play the Womens World Championship in Spain. 🇪🇦 While Ukraine 🇺🇦 is still being invaded by the exact same people that sits in the Chess Federation of Russia leadership.

#chess #FIDE The delegation of #Ukraine🇺🇦 officially appeals the ridiculous participation of a "FIDE" team in Linares, consisting solely of Russian passport holders. It violates all IOC guidelines and the decisions of the FIDE General Assembly and the FIDE Council.

It seems FIDE is not only contradicting IOC rules but also contradicting itself. While preparing a model for the Women's Team Championship, I noticed a strange thing. Teams were not allocated to pools based on their average rating 👀 #FIDE

If this really is the case, it is absurd. Is @FIDE_chess arguing that emailing the IOC and getting no reply is = IOC approved ?

According to FIDE's own decision of 18 July, the participation of a Russian women's team in Spain is possible ONLY upon a letter of no-objection by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). Has anyone seen such a letter by the IOC? @FIDE_chess @TelegraphChess @Chessdom

The Candidates will have 3 players not in the top 20. That is too many IMO.

Dear @Pilar_Alegria, A few days ago you signed that IOC guidelines (which exclude team events for Russian passport holders) should be followed. Why do you allow Spain to be used as a white-washing vehicle for the Kremlin with the FIDE World Team #Chess Championship for women?…

Dear @Pilar_Alegria, This is the Russian 🇷🇺 Chess Federation social media post. They look forward to playing in Linares 🇪🇦 tomorrow and Russia will use this as an example in other sports, that Russian teams are being allowed back. Please act, the World of Chess will not.
