Eventually the deaths of children, civilians, and the rampant warmongering of his country touched him. But he still supports russia in 99% of international conflicts, as he said! Does that include Chechnya? Georgia? Syria? Did children and innocents not die there? what about BLR?

Seven out of the eight games started with 1. e4 in the first round of the Belgrade #FIDEGrandPrix; only Richard Rapport stood out with 1.d4!
Are you an 1.e4 or 1.d4 player yourself?
