FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov has suggested organizing a chess
match between Armenian and Azeri children in Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azerisport quotes him as saying that he also has an idea to build a
line of peace on the Arab-Israeli border. "They have built a six-meter
wall there, but there is a section where the wall is not ready yet.
So, we could place one thousand chess tables there and organize a
match between Arab and Israeli children. The leader of Palestine
Mahmoud Abbas has welcomed this idea. The Israeli leaders have not
said no. So, all we have to do is to carry it out. The same would
do for Nagorno- Karabakh, where we could organize a match between
Armenian and Azeri children," Ilyumzhinov said.
