Not chess. Chess is largely funded by wealthy sponsors who have coins to spare. Most chess tournaments don't make much money as a business unlike other sporting events. There's not much of an advertisement value either. Companies that sponsor chess events do it either because their leadership loves the game, or as a favour for their grandmaster friends. Edit: forgot to mention government funds. That's another thing that make many chess events possible.
Certainly not in Russia when Magnus started (some 25 years ago?). The chess tournaments were either state-sponsored or maybe held by some big clubs who get money from memberships or something. The whole business machinery around chess is maybe 10 years old in the west
so if KASPAROV wanted to say kill the Ukraine's, you think Magnus would say that? only if you agree with the message yourself would you spread the message. so this is also an endorsement from Magnus (indirectly)
Magnus is rambling under pressure - he got the "award" which never existed in chess. The "award" was invented for the whole purpose of delivering scripted political speech. Chess was an instrument of war 70 years ago, 30 years ago, and now. It is a weapon. Fischer fell under the pressure. Spassky too was bought and defected, on the same day a match between Karpov and Fisher had to be "agreed upon". A setup. Then decades later, Spassky flees from Paris back to Russia, because "he fears he'll be killed in the West." Kasparov too became an instrument of the Western oligarchs who want Russian resources, and is showing his irrational side, "Putin's agents are all over me." Fischer called Kasparov as "good boy Weinstein", seeing Kasparov's psychological flaw to obey political Zionist games, which Fischer abandoned and withdrew from chess. Now Magnus, to get the invented award, delivers scripted speech. These pitiful charades are what happens when great chess players, kings of the game, accept being mere pawns in the globalist games.

If you look at careers career and accomplishments you know he's the GOAT or close to it with Magnus. Magnus is a chess historian. That's why he thinks Kasparov is the GOAT. Kasparovs career was unreal. Magnus is right there with him though. I don't see how anyone else could be considered the GOAT. Some think Fischer is, but I don't think he's as good as Magnus or Kasparov.
@@billj4525 Fischer aint better than Magnus. No one in history is better than Magnus. He literally goes up against AI technology today and continues dominating and winning.
Athletes are people we look up to and we are saddened when they don't live up to our expectation. In Magnus Carlsen's case he has spoken nothing but truth. He spoke it to FIDE when he chose not to defend his title. And he spoke truth here. We all have the right, actually, the responsibility to call out unwarranted aggression that costs lives. The argument that Ukraine was about to join NATO and therefore posed a threat falls flat. NATO has never initiated an unprovoked attack. NATO is a defense organization. If anything, by being part of NATO, Russia would be assured that Ukraine would never make an unprovoked attack against Russia. Why Sergey would say Magnus or anyone else can't speak about politics I have no idea. Maybe not in Russia, I get it, but elsewhere, it is one of the freedoms we all aspire to maintain.
"Vice-President of the Chess Federation of Russia" is not "Russian Federation". Its like speaking of Unites States as "Racist and sexist" based on Doland Trump.
"Before making negative comments about Russia, it would be proper for him to pay back what he owes in terms of those winnings." So he played tournaments in Russia, won games, earned money and if he says something inappropriate regarding their politics he should give that money back?! Views just like in the days of the Soviet Union, but who is still surprised in view of current events. It would be nice if the Russians did not cling so much to their past, which was not so glorious.
When he's this humble (him speaking about still holding Kasparov above himself), it makes me love his trash talk even more. Because he's not being arrogant, he's just being honest. LMAO

It should. The double standard is disappointing. I'd rather see chess stay separate from all political situations, but if they're going to sanction Russia then absolutely Israel and its accomplices like the USA should face the same treatment for our equally unacceptable aggression and inhumanity
@@DimitriMoreira The USA has been supporting Israel throughout the whole genocide, and is sending them our own troops now.

Magnus: references toxicity of being associated with Russian and Belorussian chess federations. Russian Chess Federation: underlines that it indeed exists. P. S. Being a Russian citizen makes the situation a bit bitter to watch TBH. At this point my anger about the war might be weaker than the disgust at how all levels of Russian society want to weasel out of the war's consequences.
I disagree. The Russian chess players have absolutely nothing to do with their government's war. Why were most of nato not banned for Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, lebanon etc.

I'm Russian, and I agree with both Garry and Magnus. Tell 'em Magnus! Those hypocrites. They grow obedient loyal to the regime sportsmen from the young age and do that on our taxes. And now they say sports is out of politics. Pathetic!
A likeable and humble Magnus Carlsen, who immediately downplays his truly remarkable performance so far and also doesn't miss the opportunity to take a clear stance against Russia.
Let's play devil's advocate. Do you think the crimes that the US and China commit are not deserving of a ban? Where's the line? Is it only once you oppress a sovereign country? So, you and the chess body do not respect the sovereignty of Taiwan? This is just hypocrisy.
The United States isn't at war with Russia, genius. Also a global world superpower attacking a bordering first world sovereign nation unprovoked is unprecedented.
A lot of people are missing the point. Magnus stirred up trouble first by whining about the Russia/Ukraine conflict. So the Russian Federation simply said that since Magnus has such hatred for Russian chess, then he should want nothing to do with their money either. It's them trying to expose Magnus' hypocrisy.

Magnus is free to speak his mind. He owes nothing to Russia, he would have succeeded in chess even if he never went to any Russian tournaments in his life. That said, I think that the sanctions on Russia and Belarus are discriminatory. Athletes shouldn't be paying for the sins of their country. Also, Israel, Palestine, China, the US and many other countries are not sanctioned, even though they've done even worse things or are in a conflict right now
I hope he doesn’t lose his mind like Bobby Fisher, what could be the world of chess without the participation of Soviet and Russian grandmasters? To his knowledge Gary Kasparov was poppet of Heydar Aliyev (the KGB agent & later on a member of politburo). Kasparov was so favorite and so protected by Aliyev when he had an eye on the certain apartment in Baku which was belonged to head of conservatory “Jovdat Hadjiev”, by his request Aliyev made an offer to Hadjiev, that he couldn’t reject; Aliyev gave two apartments to Hadjiev and Kasparov moved to his apartment. Kasparov and his god father Aliyev when they saw the time of Soviet is ending suddenly both of them became pro western democracy, if Soviet didn’t collapse Aliyev would have continued in his position in politburo and who knows; maybe Kasparov would have been the next …. of Azerbaijan. This is a common knowledge in Baku.
Honestly it's funny how westoids gush over Kasparov as if he isn't a complete clown in every single sense besides chess (although nowadays he's a clown here too).
I think that Fischer was a better chess player than Carlsen or Kasparov during the time he was active, but Carlsen and Kasparov are better human beings.
Russian federation cannot ask Magnus to return even one penny as the prizes legally belong to him. Russian feferation also in that case must reimburse all of Magnus’ costs for participating in Russian tournaments.
Casparov instead of recognize itself as a product of soviet union has chosen to be a traitor. If it wasn't the soviet union probably he wouldn't had the opportunity, and would much more probably be a farmer. October revolution has taken humanity to space and more, before the revolution Russia was feudal and, if the capitalists ruled it would remain feudal. Whatever, greatfullnes is a quality that not everyone have, and he is one of the ones that don't have, as we can see.
But he still won them. They can't change that fact man. Shame on them. They can't defeat him so they removed him from their tournaments that is how this should bee seen.

Well, I'm from the US, and and I feel exactly the same about our "leaders" If NATO weren't trying to become an empire (and doing what they assured Gorbachev during the perestroika days that they never would), a lot of Ukrainians *and* Russians would still be alive/unmaimed.
@@RogerioSilva-bq7he In case this hasn't occured to you, what do you think the US would have done back during the first cold war if the Soviet Union had installed a puppet regime in Canada and then invited them to join the Warsaw Pact. Right, I think we both know . . .
@@RogerioSilva-bq7hein case you forgot or maybe you never knew, after WW2 NATO established as a force to keep USSR at bay with Eastern Block opposing them. NATO promised not to get countries from the eastern block, because that what was asked by Russia to keep geopolitical security. Russia didn't want NATO at its borders. And when Russia at early 00s asked NATO if they can join NATO said no, obviously because it's against Russia so, why would they. So then Russia turned on it's head and instead of acting pro-western, acting more to defend itself, while NATO expanded east, unlike what was promised, placing bases in Turkey, having balkan states joined as well. Ukraine going western was a last blow. NATO and US instead of calling it off, just provoked a war (oh wait, they never did that, did they?). There are certainly own governments goals in Ukraine, but NATO and US could've prevented this from happening if they merely didn't support Ukraine going western, provoking russophobic moods in Ukraine and therefore provoking Russia.
@@hyperion3135 goats - animals with horns, funny eyes and they are usually kept for their milk. to get it from Magnus, you would need to milk him. why would you wish to do this?
Kudos to the Russian Chess Federation and to Mr. Smagin, a logical and just move on their part. And Magnus would have to know that it is a dirty NATO proxy war against Russia that NATO started (via Ukraine) back in 2014. Therefore, if he has any dignity left, let him return what he no longer deserves.
Athletes can make political statements. Politics is not something in the needs of politicians, their sole purpose is to serve the people. So the people can judge and express as much as they want. Dictators may be a little bit too used to people with their heads bowed
Notice how the muppet athletes and celebrities always are in lock-step with whatever ideology their respective governments have and always agree about everything? The bovine masses (like yourself) lap that up.
Yes and no. The horrors of the wars are comparable, however the outcome of isr/pal will have little to no impact on global geopolitics while ru/ukr conflict is a pivotal moment in geopolitics that has major implications for both large and small nations around the world, particularly in Europe and the Mediterranean. On an ethics level I agree with you however it's tough to expect the majority of people to care to the same degree when the outcome of one event will not affect most people, and the outcome of the other affects all geopolitics. You kinda have to be realistic about expectations with people.
Why there aren't nearly the same in any way. Rus/Ukr is a large scale "Modern" war with the aggressor having nuclear weapons and both states are important food producers globally meanwhile Israel is a small insignificant apartheid state that acts as a US foothold in the middle east and Palestine isn't even a recognized state in all of North America, the important part of Europe, Oceania, or Japan. Much less so the designated terrorism group Hamas that are running the show in Gaza in contrast to the West Bank.
I don't think the propagandist mean that Carlsen should return the winnings. I think they mean that he should mindlessly support Russia no matter what simply because he played chess there and won money there.
Obviously being good at chess doesnt mean you are smart in every possible way. We shouldnt blame Carlsen for saying something so ridiculous, hes probably much too busy contemplating chess to learn about what is really going on in Ukraine.
Okay props to Magnus. I thought he was just a chess champion, but he's also brave. Making such a statement puts him at risk bc they psychos will Putin-style assasinate you like his political opponents.
I am not sure if saying "Russia plays the victim" is a good wording. Most Russians don't even mind this, it's just few of them at the top making wrong decisions and saying wrong things. When a school shooting in America occurs, we don't say "America is so bad and always shoots kids". It is just few people in America doing things like this not the entire country. So, work on your wording mate.

Dunno, but here are a couple from Kasparov: "Millions of people have come to Israel in the past seventy-five years because it is a Jewish state. But they have stayed because Israel is also a democracy" "If the most extreme chants of 'from the river to the sea' were to be realized, I can assure you that Palestine would not be free - it would be yet another dictatorship among many"
Welp, here you are, Kremlin bot. Here are direct quote from Sergey Smagin : “I would remind Carlsen that the start of his professional career occurred in Russia.

Some think Fischer is, but I don't think he's as good as Magnus or Kasparov.

Fischer aint better than Magnus. No one in history is better than Magnus. He literally goes up against AI technology today and continues dominating and winning.
without magnus they wouldn’t be making as much revenue compared to like Prag, Fabi, Hikaru, etc. that’s disrespectful.
Athletes are people we look up to and we are saddened when they don't live up to our expectation. In Magnus Carlsen's case he has spoken nothing but truth. He spoke it to FIDE when he chose not to defend his title. And he spoke truth here. We all have the right, actually, the responsibility to call out unwarranted aggression that costs lives. The argument that Ukraine was about to join NATO and therefore posed a threat falls flat. NATO has never initiated an unprovoked attack. NATO is a defense organization. If anything, by being part of NATO, Russia would be assured that Ukraine would never make an unprovoked attack against Russia. Why Sergey would say Magnus or anyone else can't speak about politics I have no idea. Maybe not in Russia, I get it, but elsewhere, it is one of the freedoms we all aspire to maintain.

Let's play devil's advocate. Do you think the crimes that the US and China commit are not deserving of a ban? Where's the line? Is it only once you oppress a sovereign country? So, you and the chess body do not respect the sovereignty of Taiwan? This is just hypocrisy.

Magnus is free to speak his mind. He owes nothing to Russia, he would have succeeded in chess even if he never went to any Russian tournaments in his life.

I hope he doesn’t lose his mind like Bobby Fisher, what could be the world of chess without the participation of Soviet and Russian grandmasters?
To his knowledge Gary Kasparov was poppet of Heydar Aliyev (the KGB agent & later on a member of politburo). Kasparov was so favorite and so protected by Aliyev when he had an eye on the certain apartment in Baku which was belonged to head of conservatory “Jovdat Hadjiev”, by his request Aliyev made an offer to Hadjiev, that he couldn’t reject; Aliyev gave two apartments to Hadjiev and Kasparov moved to his apartment.
Kasparov and his god father Aliyev when they saw the time of Soviet is ending suddenly both of them became pro western democracy, if Soviet didn’t collapse Aliyev would have continued in his position in politburo and who knows; maybe Kasparov would have been the next …. of Azerbaijan.
This is a common knowledge in Baku.
Honestly it's funny how westoids gush over Kasparov as if he isn't a complete clown in every single sense besides chess (although nowadays he's a clown here too).
Russian logic is like no other.. "You owe us the money you earned". What an intelligent people!

@@RogerioSilva-bq7hein case you forgot or maybe you never knew, after WW2 NATO established as a force to keep USSR at bay with Eastern Block opposing them. NATO promised not to get countries from the eastern block, because that what was asked by Russia to keep geopolitical security. Russia didn't want NATO at its borders. And when Russia at early 00s asked NATO if they can join NATO said no, obviously because it's against Russia so, why would they. So then Russia turned on it's head and instead of acting pro-western, acting more to defend itself, while NATO expanded east, unlike what was promised, placing bases in Turkey, having balkan states joined as well. Ukraine going western was a last blow. NATO and US instead of calling it off, just provoked a war (oh wait, they never did that, did they?). There are certainly own governments goals in Ukraine, but NATO and US could've prevented this from happening if they merely didn't support Ukraine going western, provoking russophobic moods in Ukraine and therefore provoking Russia.

Athletes can make political statements.
Politics is not something in the needs of politicians, their sole purpose is to serve the people. So the people can judge and express as much as they want.
Dictators may be a little bit too used to people with their heads bowed
Notice how the muppet athletes and celebrities always are in lock-step with whatever ideology their respective governments have and always agree about everything? The bovine masses (like yourself) lap that up.

Putin after this: "Dont forget we have Nukes"
We got nukes but they wont launch 🤪
Thank you Mister and Master Carlsen.
Everybody should treat the Isr/Pal conflict to the same standard as Ru/Ukr. Then let’s talk real
Yes and no. The horrors of the wars are comparable, however the outcome of isr/pal will have little to no impact on global geopolitics while ru/ukr conflict is a pivotal moment in geopolitics that has major implications for both large and small nations around the world, particularly in Europe and the Mediterranean.
On an ethics level I agree with you however it's tough to expect the majority of people to care to the same degree when the outcome of one event will not affect most people, and the outcome of the other affects all geopolitics. You kinda have to be realistic about expectations with people.
Ukraine and Israel are both allies of the US. No matter who's guilty, they'll always stand with both.
Why there aren't nearly the same in any way. Rus/Ukr is a large scale "Modern" war with the aggressor having nuclear weapons and both states are important food producers globally meanwhile Israel is a small insignificant apartheid state that acts as a US foothold in the middle east and Palestine isn't even a recognized state in all of North America, the important part of Europe, Oceania, or Japan. Much less so the designated terrorism group Hamas that are running the show in Gaza in contrast to the West Bank.
Why, did Ukraine invaded russia killing people in music festival, burning babies and kidnapping elderly?

Opinion doesn't matter there are political fools who keep fighting to satisfy their ego.damaging their own countrymen
Dunno, but here are a couple from Kasparov:
"Millions of people have come to Israel in the past seventy-five years because it is a Jewish state. But they have stayed because Israel is also a democracy"
"If the most extreme chants of 'from the river to the sea' were to be realized, I can assure you that Palestine would not be free - it would be yet another dictatorship among many"
