🕊 Every great chess talent taken from us too soon is a heartbreak for the entire community. Our thoughts are with Daniel Naroditsky and his family during these difficult days. Thank you, Daniel, for your passion for life, and for the royal game.

I already messaged David privately about this sad situation, but I would like to once again express my full support to him. It really is a mad world when the nicest person I know could be sued for expressing the things he did…
How Kramnik's data and FIDE's inaction nearly ended in tragedy. The podcast with David Navara turned out to be one of the most heartbreaking. It's coming out tomorrow (March 3rd) on "Chess with Mustreader" YouTube channel — don't miss it!

We fully stand behind David Navara. We deeply appreciate the support expressed by @FIDE_chess. Thank you for taking a clear stance, and we wish David a swift resolution to the situation! 🤝
❗️FIDE statement on the situation involving GM Kramnik and GM Navara❗️ As the world governing body of chess, FIDE takes the issue of fair play – both OTB and online – very seriously, especially considering the current widespread popularity of online platforms and their impact
