    PanARMENIAN.Net - During November 21 meeting of the Supervisory
    Board of the Russian Chess Federation Board Chairman Ilya Levitov
    announced candidacy of GM Yuri Dokhoian to the post of the chief
    coach of Russian men's national team.

    According to the Chairman of Trainers' Council Anatoli Bikhovsli,
    the idea of appointing Dokhoian to the post was born not long ago
    due to Dokhoian's readiness to take up the position.

    The appointment will take place during the Trainers' Council
    in January with Dokhoian to present the team's working plan,
    chess-news.ru reports.

    For many years Dokhoian has been Garry Kasparov's second. In 2009, he
    started cooperating with Sergey Karjakin, being at the same time the
    coach of the Russian women's team. He is also the coach of the female
    world class players, the sisters Tatiana and Nadezhda Kosintseva. In
    2007, he was awarded the title of FIDE Senior Trainer.
