More quotes by Garry Kasparov
The most hopeful approach to peace in Ukraine is the Minsk Agreement, which includes Moscow.
Garry Kasparov
Donald Trump is a catalyst. People care now in a way they didn't. The American institutions were rusting now they are being revitalised. Trump is a lightning rod. They are getting engaged and the American liberal media that spent too much time on PC issues can focus on Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Garry Kasparov
A brilliant strategy is, certainly, a matter of intelligence, but intelligence without audaciousness is not enough.
Garry Kasparov
One does not succeed by sticking to convention.
Garry Kasparov
Weaknesses of character are normally shown in a game of chess.
Garry Kasparov
Sometimes the hardest thing to do in a pressure situation is to allow the tension to persist. The temptation is to make a decision, any decision, even if it is an inferior choice.
Garry Kasparov
Vladimir Putin mainly has friends in Europe among the extreme right, such as Marine Le Pen's Front National in France.
Garry Kasparov
The only game [Vladimir] Putin can play is to establish a lifelong dictatorship in the country, at first de facto and finally also de jure. In this case, [Dmitri] Medvedev is an interim figure bound to assist Putin in his plan to guarantee a smooth transition to a new term in office.
Garry Kasparov
The public must come to see that chess is a violent sport. Chess is mental torture.
Garry Kasparov
The international repercussions were shattering to some extent - there is no intention to repeat operations of such kind in the future.[Viktor] Yanukovych's electoral victory clearly demonstrated that there are no pro-Russian politicians in the Ukraine, just Ukrainian politicians.
Garry Kasparov
The downfall of democratic institutions in Russia doesn't add to the self-confidence of either [Vladimir] Putin or his friends, as the loss of power could lead to repercussions in Russian society.
Garry Kasparov
I have some security that could protect me against provocations but of course there are more terrible actions that could not be stopped by any security.
Garry Kasparov
There is no democracy in Russia. Dictators do not go away through the vote. Putin relies on riot police, thousands of them, with heavy equipment, fighting Russian youngsters from opposition.
Garry Kasparov
One does not succeed by sticking to convention. When your opponent can easily anticipate every move you make, your strategy deteriorates and becomes commoditized.
Garry Kasparov
It's quite difficult for me to imagine my life without chess.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
Garry Kasparov
I don't have enough information, and enough courage, to come up with a definite version of events. And I think it is too dangerous for me to do so.
Garry Kasparov
I have no idea how long Putin will last. The good news is, Putin doesn't know either. It will be sudden and it won't be peaceful. He has burned his bridges.
Garry Kasparov
The handover of power to [Dmitry] Medvedev was rather painless, everybody thought that the waves would calm automatically. By now, it's quite clear that [Vladimir] Putin doesn't want to relinquish the levers of power.
Garry Kasparov
Most likely, the system of mutual relations that has evolved in Eastern Europe and Asia corresponds to another level of governance.
