Re: FIDE Ethics Commission sanctions Russian Federation and Dvorkovich
If I read this correctly, Dvorkovich has been reprimanded not for any particular action but for being a decision-making member of a chess-related organisation which includes such luminaries as Putin's mouthpiece (Peskov) and his former Defence Minister (Shoigu) and consequently bringing chess into disrepute. The Russian Chess Federation has been more heavily punished, its membership of FIDE being temporarily suspended, but care has been taken to ensure that Russian players and officials do not suffer as a result of this decision.
