Vladimir Putin congratulated Anastasia Bodnaruk on her victory at the 2023 World Rapid Chess Championship in Samarkand.

The message reads, in part:

“You have fittingly continued the remarkable traditions of the domestic school of women’s chess, demonstrated your skill, endurance and true sporting character in taking on strong, renowned rivals, and you have deservedly become the winner of the most prestigious international competitions. And, of course, special words of gratitude go to your mentors, to all those who have supported you on the road to success.”
