Greetings to finalists of Belaya Ladya national school team chess tournament

June 1, 2022

Vladimir Putin sent greetings to participants and guests of the Belaya Ladya (White Rook) national open school team chess tournament.

The message reads, in part:

“This ambitious and fascinating tournament has a long history and tradition, being established more than half a century ago by our famous grandmasters. It is gratifying that today the tournament brings together gifted youth from many regions of our country and foreign countries at the chessboard and serves as a modern communication and educational platform, a space to display talents, fair competition and friendly discussions.

I am sure that Belaya Ladya will continue to promote chess and bring together, through its noble goals, more and more young participants, who value the ideals and principles of this ancient intellectual game while striving for the heights of mastery.”
