Azad Rahimov: Azerbaijan makes concession to Levon Aronian
The Azerbaijani side has made concession to Armenian chess player Levon Aronian for his participation in World Chess Cup 2015 in Baku, Azerbaijani Minister of Youth and Sports Azad Rahimov told reporters on Sept.9.
Despite the fact that Aronian took part in a chess tournament held in Azerbaijan’s occupied Khankendi district, the Azerbaijani side, taking into account the sports principles, made concession to him, the minister said.

The opening ceremony of World Chess Cup 2015 will take place on Sept.10 and the first matches on Sept.11.
