@chess24com This only shows why Leko could not become the world champion himself. He's never had a good understanding of psychology.

@PHChess @FIDE_chess How would @PHChess refer to these 15 countries together?

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@PHChess @FIDE_chess Soviet Union was a federation of 15 countries. The term "Soviet" includes "Georgian".

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@Animal_Chess @PHChess LOL. Mongols created the empire stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean.

Ukraines🇺🇦 Igor Kovalenko, ranked 65. in the world, playing an online event from his tablet in a trench at the frontline.
These are the realities right now.
It is wrong.

@MagnusCarlsen I've googled and share some info about this meme for those trying to understand.
This is actor James Buckley, from a UK series The Inbetweeners.
His character says this when his friend shows him disks with video games.
So, Carlsen implies that he completed chess as a game.

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@julesgambit Yes, they have. In this aspect chess is close to physical sports. There exist other intellectual games (e.g. Jeopardy and similar), where biological differences do not impact results.

@PHChess There are 10 Russian players in top-50 and 18 Russians in top-100 FIDE list. They do not receive money as national team members (it does not play). Many of them do not even live in Russia.
Do you wish to ban these 10 (or 18) players individually from all chess competitions?

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@PHChess Sorry, however, in your posts you usually write just "Russians".
OK, the Russian national teams have been banned from any competitions a year ago. Do you also seek to ban individually anyone who has ever played for that team?
What are your criteria?

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@PHChess They sponsor the Federation officials and staff and the national teams, and they organize tournaments for Karjakin and a handful of his opponents. 99,9% of Russian titled chess players earn money by private coaching or have a job outside chess.

[Volga StormBringer @GStormBringers]

@PHChess OK, @PHChess. What sanctions would you impose on @Chessidharta for playing in Karjakin's tournament?
