Objavil sem spomine na Albina Planinca, vélikega slovenskega šahista, ki je bil moj mladostni šahovski soigralec, klubski kolega, trening partner in tekmec. Kasneje moj predhodnik pri trenerskem delu z obetavnimi šahisti Slovenije. 1drv.ms/b/s!Ak7r7XjBdL5slQaT…

True leadership means respect for partners and allies. Even for the smaller and weaker ones. Never arrogance. Dear friends, think about it.

Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.🧵

Univerza v Ljubljani je lani potrdila novi študijski predmet šah. V novem študijskem letu bo izbirni predmet na drugi stopnji. Izvajal se bo na Pedagoški fakulteti. Šah se je doslej izvajal kot obštudijska dejavnost, sedaj pa vstopa tudi v redni univerzitetni študijski program.

Geologist, Professor Ian Plimer, utterly demolishes the "man-made climate change" lie, in two and a half minutes: "No one can show from the scientific literature that human emissions of carbon dioxide drive global warming... We have built this whole empire based on something that cannot be shown, and in fact you can show the opposite." "The whole move with human-induced global warming has got nothing to do with the environment. It's got everything to do with [the] deconstruction of our society, as a mechanism of unelected people gaining power."

Umrl je madžarski velemojster Andras Adorjan. Naj počiva v miru. Z njim sem igral na mladinskem dvoboju Jugoslavija - Madžarska, v Splitu, januarja 1964, ko še ni imel 14 let in je bil še Andras Jocha.

Putin must be stopped. Not compromised with, not hosted or called. Stopped. He wants to expand his murder spree to millions of hungry people around the world and rewarding this brutal blackmail will only lead to more of it.
The world’s breadbasket in flames: Russia is deliberately setting fire to Ukraine’s grain fields. This follows similar targeted airstrikes on Ukrainian grain storage facilities. Putin is openly weaponizing global hunger in his war of annihilation against Ukraine

I was called hysterical for saying this in 2014. Not anymore. Unfortunately, it took Russian tanks rolling into Ukraine, and still the same fools believe it won't spread if Putin isn't stopped. The lesson of appeasement is never learned.
"If not for NATO, Russian tanks would be rolling on the streets of Tallinn, Vilnius and Riga as we speak now" rappelait @Kasparov63 aux #ConvTocqueville2022 il y a une semaine.

На пост президента ФИДЕ баллотируется только один гражданин России. Интересно, сможет ли он подписаться под этим простым и понятным текстом?
Гарри Каспаров считает, что подпись под таким заявлением может стать пропуском для российских спортсменов в международные турниры в сложившихся обстоятельствах. Читайте: t.me/chessnewslive/2812

No one will be able to say "we didn't know" this time. The villages are being burned now, not buried. The concentration camps are being built, not demolished. The war you say you don't want is already here.

Again we must ask why the US is dragging its feet, and NATO's, on giving Ukraine the airpower it needs. It's been two weeks. If they wanted it to happen, it would. Putin knows this, too. Are they still looking for some deal with this mass murderer?
Horrifying attack on Mariupol. Children's hospital and maternity hospital targeted by Russian strikes. Many losses. The city is completely surrounded. There’s no electricity, water and gas. Russia refuses to provide green corridor. City is facing humanitarian catastrophe.

Putin has clearly demonstrated that he wants to destroy the international order, not work to preserve it. So, Russia should be suspended from every international institution until he stops his destructive ways.
