The petition in support of Ilyumzhinov continues collecting signatures on the White House website

The petition in support of FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov continues collecting signatures on the White House website.

The authors of the petition argue that the sanctions against Ilyumzhinov, imposed by US authorities, are unjustified and represent an act of injustice. "The head of FIDE is absolutely innocent and is ready to prove it in court", as written in this petition. "Moreover, he is ready to undergo a polygraph test."

Earlier it was reported that the White House is considering the Ilyumzhinov’s request for a meeting with Barack Obama.
