10/05/2018 – Nigel Short quiere ser presidente de la FIDE. Ha confirmado eso frente al "Aftenposten" (el periódico más importante de Noruega).

Short entonces va a ser el tercer candidato que quiere entrar en la arena de las elecciones. "El ajedrez se merece una alternativa mejor", opinó el gran maestro inglés de 52 años. En 2010 y 2014, Short había apoyado tanto a Karpov como a Kasparov en sus respectivas candidatutras. |Foto: Ambasada Británica de Kirgisistán
