YEREVAN, JANUARY 19, ARMENPRESS: Levon Aronian has the best chances
for becoming World Champion. This has been noted by First FIDE Vice
President George Macropolus during the interview with journalist on
January 19, when answering Armenpress question on how likely it is to
hold the game of Viswanathan Anand in Yerevan if the right to play
with the world champion is achieved by Levon Aronian. `Aronian has
proved he is a perfect player and that he can score the win over any
opponent. If he wins, FIDE will be happy to hold the game in Armenia,'
Macropolus said, adding Anand would have no problem playing here as
well. `Fantastic game will take place in Armenia,' he said.

Anand was the FIDE World Rapid Chess Champion in 2003, and is widely
considered the strongest rapid player of his generation. Levon Aronian

Championship.
