Greetings on the opening of World Amateur Go Championship

June 3, 2021

Vladimir Putin sent his greetings to participants and guests of the World Amateur Go Championship.

The message reads, in part:

“This is the first time that Russia is hosting this prestigious and respected sports event, and we are happy to welcome the world’s best Go players in Vladivostok.

I have no doubt that the championship will be held at a high organisational and creative level and will help to promote the values and traditions of this ancient game, which harmoniously combines the spirit of intellectual combat and a unique philosophy. Of course, the contest is also a major, landmark event for the residents and guests of the capital city of the Russian Far East.”
