Or from the Chess-News.ru website, in any event. They have an article claiming that Kirsan is losing support rapidly, and will be impeached at the Baku Olympiad. We'll see if it amounts to anything, but if he is in fact losing the support of the Russian Chess Federation, it will likely be the end for him as President of FIDE.
Can't say as I'll miss him, but remember this Axiom for Life: It can always get worse! Kirsan was worse than Campo, and the next one could well be worse than Kirsan. However, if the Russian billionaire & Pres. of the Russian Chess Federation Andrey Vasilievich Filatov steps into the role, it could well be an improvement.
So now that I've added the Official Commentator Waffle Language, I'll sign off! (Yes, there is an Official Commentator Booklet, full of useful items on how to waffle, obfuscate, and otherwise cover one's posterior. Much of it has been cribbed from the Official Economist's Commentary series.)
PS Do people prefer this larger font or the normal sized font I usually use?
