    Yerevan/Mediamax/. Chief Coach of National Chess Team of Armenia Arshak
    Petrosyan said today that the team gained a victory at the strongest
    World Championship in the history of chess as to its composition.

    Mediamax reports that Arshak Petrosyan explained that 9 out of 10
    participant teams of the World Championship in China enter the list of
    top ten strongest teams in the world. The coach and the players named
    as the main component of success the team spirit, which creates a
    "family" atmosphere in the national team.

    Gabriel Sargsian noted that he started believing 90% in the victory
    of our Team at the tournament after the 5th round, when Armenia left
    the team of China behind.

    Vladimir Hakobyan spoke about his set with the representative of
    Azerbaijan Rauf Mamedov in the one but final round, in which the fate
    of the first place was in many respects decided upon. According to
    the Armenian grand master, the Azeri player could have yielded at
    least 20 steps before that, however he did not do that, since this
    game was very important for both teams.

    The coach of the Armenian National Teams said that the next tournament
    is the Europe Team Championship, which is launching on November 2
    in Greece. The Armenian Team will leave for it with the same "gold"
    composition.

    Answering the question on introducing chess in the mandatory school
    program in Armenia, Arshak Petrosyan welcomed this decision, noting
    that the fact will allow children developing logic and will provide
    a big stimulus for development of chess.
