Președintele FIDE Arkady Dvorkovich se suspendă din funcție | Sancțiuni UE

Arkady Dvorkovich has voluntarily suspended his presidency of FIDE after being sanctioned by the EU due to the Ukraine invasion. He plans to contest the decision, calling it illegal and unfair. Vice President Viswanathan Anand will serve as interim president. Dvorkovich believes the organization will continue to function smoothly despite the challenges posed by the sanctions, which could impact FIDE's operations. This suspension comes just months before the upcoming elections for FIDE's leadership, where Dvorkovich intended to run for re-election.
