Russian propaganda is celebrating a big victory this week. Not in Ukraine, but in India, where a former Putin deputy was reelected head of the International Chess Federation. It's shocking, but not surprising, and many EU federations support him. My post: https://t.co/5Mc1dNa7dm — PolitiTweet.org

And to the Ukrainian women's team for their gold medal. Nice to have a shining moment to celebrate with so much strife far away at home. — PolitiTweet.org

FIDE has been under direct or indirect KGB control for decades as a useful tool for the Soviets and Putin's regime. Its corruption is high even for a sports federation. But supporting a Russian in this post during Putin's horrific war is a new low for FIDE and chess. — PolitiTweet.org
