It’s been 3 months since the last post on veselintopalov.net. These were 3 months of silent protest against all the decisions around Elista and the obvious denial of the truth. Something was wrong in Elista and one year after the WCC many strange facts and events are floating around to support this statement.
No, we will not dig deeper because we cannot fight against all the proof that has been destroyed. The last heavy blow was the story with the cassttes. A story that many sites skipped mentioning.
In accordance with article 7 of the EC Internal Rules, the Chairman of the EC, mindful of the request from Messrs Topalov and Danailov, through the FIDE Office in Elista asked the Organising Committee of the World Championship to make a copy of the video tapes of the match available to the EC. On 17th July 2007 Mr. Valery Bovaev, Chairman of the Executive Committee World Chess Championship match 2006, informed the EC, through the FIDE Office in Elista, that “according to the statement of the Head of the Administration of the informational resources of the Republic of Kalmykia Mr. Namsinov, who was in charge for the security and tapes as well during the Championship match, the video tapes from the Topalov-Kramnik match have been destroyed”. Prior to receiving to this report, FIDE Offices have never been informed of Mr. Valery Bovaev’s decision.
This statement by the Ethics commission was the last piece of the puzzle. And where can you find the rest of the pieces? Finally they are collected at one place. The book “On the Edge at Elista”, the English translation of “The Toilet War”, has been published. It is Veselin Topalov’s personal account of his 2006 world championship match against Vladimir Kramnik. With the help of co-author Zhivko Ginchev, Topalov shares his thoughts, hopes and fears as he fought for the most prestigious title in the chess world. Get it, read it, know the truth.
And do not forget to follow the WC Mexico in the independent media websites.
