Former chess world champion Veselin Topalov is not going to take part in tournaments of the World Chess Federation (FIDE) and the European Chess Union (ECU) unless the leaderships of the two organizations have been replaced. The ultimatum has been put by the president of the Bulgarian Chess Federation (BCF) and personal manager of Veselin Topalov, Silvio Danailov. In September 2016 Bulgaria was temporarily expelled from ECU over suspected financial crimes at BCF, and FIDE suspended Silvio Danailov from representative functions at the international level for a term of 18 months.
