Descrição
Russian chess grandmaster Sergei Karyakin dismisses the geopolitical overtones of his forthcoming East-West showdown against Norwegian reigning world champion Magnus Carlsen -- insisting it's just a matter of sporting pride. "He has to prove that he's better than me," Karyakin told AFP during an interview last month, sitting next to an ornate chess board in his home outside Moscow. "Back then it was the USSR versus the US, and now it's the European Union and the US and their sanctions against Russia," the Russian president of the World Chess Federation said ahead of the event.
