Garry Kasparov

Garry Kasparov
Image
We are living in a new ice age, and we need to apply the recipes of the Cold War to the Kremlin. That means isolation instead of offers of negotiation. And Ukraine should have been supplied with weapons long ago.

If you make a decision to fight for future of your own country you have to consider all the consequences.
Garry Kasparov
Image
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.

In the event that we don't want to lose the Far East and Siberia, we need a united Europe.

Few things are as psychologically brutal as chess.

At a certain point, the atmosphere in the West could change. But I don't see determined political will [for that] at the moment.

Energy is connected to physical fitness. One of the reasons I stayed at the top so long is that I was tremendously fit. At 36, I was fitter than most opponents ten years younger.
