Turlov demande à la FIDE de retirer le candidat Wadim Rosenstein du scrutin en raison d’un accord de sponsoring avec la Fédération allemande des échecs

Timur Turlov has filed a complaint with FIDE's Electoral Commission requesting the removal of presidential candidate Wadim Rosenstein from the ballot and suspension of the German Chess Federation's voting rights. Rosenstein's company WR Events became a major sponsor of the German Chess Federation in August 2026, just weeks before the September 26 election, which Turlov argues violates FIDE electoral rules prohibiting candidates from providing valuable consideration to voting federations during campaigns.
