olympics.com/ioc/news/ioc-eb… This is the IOC statement: fide.com/news/1603 This is the FIDE statement, which is deliberately misleading towards what IOC recommends.

Why do chess servers not name & shame cheaters? The Niemann case is a good example of why they hesitate, especially when US laws apply. Chesscom will now have to go through a long court case that could take years and cost them $$$. Public accusations increase the risk.

Magnus Carlsen won a nice game today against Anton Korobov, in the 5th round of the European Club Cup, but Vishy Anand lost to his compatriot Pentala Harikrishna. This result was crucial for the latter's team, Novy Bor, who beat CSU ASE Superbet and are in sole lead.
