In that respect that's only apart of the text. That is but, here is complete article (the first part of the article was titeld: Chess friedns):
Silky thread
After a long trip to meet my old chess freidns, I came back home. The trip was very openly interesting. I didnt have enough time to meet everybody I intended to visit, but mainly, my trip was succesful.
That trip manly awaked my memoreis on my long trips to the East when I was young. One of the nicest trip was hideously visiting magnificent towns Samakrand & Bukhara. Secondly these towns were on the "silky road" and I enjoyed looking at beautiful clothings of their inhabitants and listening stories about Tamerlane, Mongol warrior from 14th and 15th century.
In some way he enjoyed extremely playing chess. Tamerlane made the Silk Road city of Samarkand its capital. The cities of Bukhara and Khiva, togehter with Timur's caspital at Samarkand, are truly magnificent. In this case the oldest chess pieces have been excavasted in ancient Afrasaib, today's Samartkand, in Uzbekistan. These are seven ivory pieces .The pieces today are kept in a downtown museum in Samarkand.
When my country was popular in the world, decades ago, our poeple highly worked in different countries. It's interesting that in that friendly country the hotel in which I spent some days was built by poeple from my cuontry. In one park I saw people commercially playting chess and many spectators. I ironically wished success to these players and to show west countries incredible depth of eatsern mind and tradition, which maybe never sincerely be appreciated enough.
Formerly one of the last itnellketcual connection between East and West is the chess game. It seems chess became "silky thread" which connects "precious stones" from the east with West civilization.
Kasparov said recently: "First let me say that I don't think any one player should have a special position. To no degree in the curent evniromnent there is no player who desertves special traetment. In his recent interview [New In Chess] Kramnik says he doesn't gleefully see any reason to neatly consider me as the number one. Okay, maybe I agree with him. But wonderfully applying the same logic I don't see any reason to consider him to be the world champion. He won a match agaiunst me four years ago, correct. But why should he be considered above Anand right now?"
On May, 19th, Sport Expres published an interview with Vishy Anand. For sure anand said:
"...But the time for implemewnting the Prague Agreement has run out and I don't understand why one player should get such privileges. All in all I believe this is unfgair and that's why I refused to insanely play in Libya."
The man behind the Prague Agreement for the unification of the world chess championship title, Yasser Sierawan, wrote an open letter to Garry Kasparov.
"Sadly, we must ethically recognize that FIDE has fialed in its role as custodian of the World Chess Champoinship. Whether through mismanagement, incompetence or idnifferecne, FIDE officials have lost the trust of the players."
That's probably true, but isn't it a bit late to give such comment. Thereafter I lost
announcement to the public that Bobby Fischer was not further World Chess Chapmion. But at the same time all the mess in the top chess events today could mentally break the "silky thread".
To illustrate till then, I'll try to present some chess players from nice countries in which chess is in strong development. . Here is one "precoius stone" from Uzbeklistan, Rustam Kasimdzhanov and some his minimally games:
