Solidarity is one thing. $2,000,000 is another.

you can't expect people to sacrifice so much. the two issue is the people who decided to organize the event there

> Also, where is the solidarity form champions like Magnus Carlsen?

Really!!

This is a great moment to show solidarity in the face to stupid and backward policies. I sincerely hope the great minds choose to boycott this tournament and support a meaningful cause.

Yes indeed! It seems the people down voting my comment don’t agree.

I read your post as objecting, not agreeing. Perhaps others have the same confusion.

Thanks. May be a cultural thing.

Boycotting this tournament should be a no-brainer.
