Digest more
The chess world is grieving the death of American Grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky. Arjun Erigaisi is the latest to blame Vladimir Kramnik for Naroditsky’s death and urged FIDE to take action against him.
The petitioners are demanding that FIDE remove all of Kramnik’s titles and norms and hand him a ban. The petition, titled “Request FIDE ban Vladimir Kramnik, and revoke his titles/norms, per ethics standards,” is active and gaining momentum on different social media platforms.
FIDE has launched an investigation into Vladimir Kramnik after outrage from Magnus Carlsen and Hikaru Nakamura over the late Daniel Naroditsky's treatment and accusations of cheating in online chess.
