Chief Arbiters Report on Women's World Chess Championship
1 WOMEN’S WORLD CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP NALCHIK, 28th AUGUST- 18TH SEPTEMBER 2008. In the Presidental Board Meeting, held in Athen 31st May & 1st June, 2008 the FIDE President, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov advised that the Women’s World Championship would be organized in Nalchik, Kabardino- Balkaria, Russia from 28th August to 18th September, 2008. The FIDE PB has approved the list of qualifiers and the schedule of the World Women's Championship 2008. All qualifiers must send signed Undertaking to the FIDE Secretariat by the deadline of 17 June 2008. The list of 64 Players was published on the FIDE website, then 3rd July 2008 the pairings of the 1st Round and the Pairings Tree for the Championship. On 1st August American player, Irina Krush inform the FIDE about her withdrawal from the Women’s World Championship, then the organizers has a big problem after the unfortunate events in South Ossetia, the Georgian players not get permission from their govornment. Before this crisis emerged, there were some speculations that Nalchik is not a safe place and some of the players were afraid to travel there. Statement of the Chairman of Organizing Commitee of the WWCC 2008, Arsen Kanokov on 14th August: „Organizing Committee of the Women’s World Chess Championship 2008 is deeply disappointed and bewildered by the attempts of some circles by no means spots ones to break up the competition of the strongest women chess players of the world scheduled to be held in Nalchik. Sharing entirely and fully attitude of FIDE and European Chess Union toward an open letter of Georgian women chess players, we believe that representatives of a famous chess school shouldn't be pawns in somebody's unworthy game. -
