According to the Russian major news agency RIA 'News', chess ex-champion Bobby
Fischer, who has recently settled in Iceland, is planning to visit Serbia again.

Janos Kubat, Fischer's colleague and friend, informed on Wednesday
press-conference in Belgrade that Fischer wants to visit a small town Kaniza,
where he lived for 8 months in 1993 (located on a border between Serbia and
Hungary) to play a chess match.

Kubat said that he has already selected two hotels in Kaniza that are sutable
for a match with Pal Benko - the Hungarian-born American who currently lives in
Budapest.

'I have already found a sponsor. Now it fully depends on Icelandic authorities
permitting Fischer to come to Serbia', - said Kubat.
