the Rules of Fair Play will be observed. In any case, the panel of judges will provide a complete “isolation” of players from computers and trainers. Clues will be punished, and why to deceive each other especially now, in this difficult time.
the Tournament will be broadcast on many chess resources and of course Twitter and YouTube. Comments of experts will be performed in many languages, including Russian. As told in an official communiqué, the President of FIDE the International chess Federation Arkady Dvorkovich, the reasons for which the tournament is played in this format, pretty sad (but all of us understood – approx. ed.).
