PanARMENIAN.Net - Vice-president of Armenian Chess Federation, Yerevan
Chess Federation president Ashot Vardapetyan has proposed to hold
2018 super chess tournaments in Yerevan.
"I've suggested the mayor that Yerevan hold 2018 chess open which
will be timed to the city's 2800th anniversary celebrations. Though
discussions are currently being held, no progress has been recorded
so far," he said.
"Different cities hold chess opens; and I wonder why a city that
boasts such good chess traditions as Yerevan doesn't host such an
event," Mr. Vardapetyan said.
