Go up one level in this thread

Vikrant,

As far as i know FIDE wanted to involve in this match. But FIDE wants to put
Chess into Olympiñ Games. But sponsor was tobacco company. And Olympic Committee
said to Ilumzhinov: forget about this match cause sponsor is tobbacco company.

That's i heard.

With best regards,

Yar
