He is congratulated by the first deputy chairman of the board of the Russian Fund of the World Elena Sutormina:
– Dear and dear Anatoly Evgenievich! With all my heart, I want to cordially congratulate you on your birthday from the Soviet and Russian funds of the world! You are an outstanding representative of the domestic and world chess elite, who achieved brilliant results, a huge number of victories and won the most loud awards and titles. You brilliantly hold charity events, open chess schools and conduct skill lessons around the world, unite friends and associates who respect and support you in your multilateral activities for the good of the country, including the honorary president of the Soviet Foundation of the World. I cannot but note that the Russian-Chinese humanitarian project “Voice of Music” is being implemented with your support. It is no less symbolic that on your birthday ends the “Cup of Karpov – 50 years later”, in which both the game veterans and the youngest talents took part. Thanks to your hard work, willpower and determination, you have become an example for young people. I wish you health, long years of life, new achievements and creative joys!
