Garry Kasparov
Few things are as psychologically brutal as chess.
Garry Kasparov
I reckon that there won't be an intervention in the near future, because Georgia's military adventure revealed the weakness of the Russian army.
Garry Kasparov
I believe more than ever, machines will put new challenges, and that means we'll have to be more creative and more human, because that's the way to make the difference.
Garry Kasparov
Alexei Navalny, the opposition politician who has led anti-corruption protests, had a blog about a credit line to a company owned by Vladimir Putin's son-in-law, $1.75 billion from Russian state funds this is one transaction. Putin controls more money directly and indirectly than any individual in human history.
Garry Kasparov
At the northern border of Azerbaijan, Daghestan by no means contributes to the democratization of the Caucasus.
Garry Kasparov
