Aronian: I feel very dissatisfied with FIDE's decision

FIDE did not satisfy the appeal of the Armenian national team in connection with the game of Hayk Martirosyan with the Indian national team in the quarterfinals of the online Olympiad.

Due to the interrupted connection of the Chess.com website server, the Armenian grandmaster lost time. Leader of the Armenian national team Levon Aronian took to his twitter to comment on the FIDE decision in this regard.

"As a leader of a 3 times Olympic champion I feel very dissatisfied with FIDE's decision to reject our just http://appeal.In our match against India Haik Martirosyan lost on time due to disconnection from http://chess.com We proved that our connection was stable and it was a problem access to http://chess.com, not on our side. All we asked for was to continue that game from the same position and same time. Is it too much to ask?" Aronian tweeted.
