'Kick-out Zelensky for Wearing...': Russian FM Lavrov Reacts to Jeans Ban at Chess Championship

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has expressed his shock at the International Chess Federation’s (FIDE) strict enforcement of the dress code, leading to Magnus Carlsen’s controversial disqualification from the World Rapid and Blitz Championship for wearing jeans.

In a surprising statement, Lavrov compared the treatment of Carlsen to the more lenient dress code surrounding Ukrainian President Zelensky’s frequent appearance in military-style attire at international events.

This has sparked debates on double standards and the politics of dress codes in global arenas.

Watch the full story on this chess scandal and Lavrov’s bold remarks.

Massive Russian Drone Attack: Ukraine Shoots Down 73 UAVs | Russia Trying To Spoil Turkey Talks?

In a major overnight assault on May 15–16, Russia launched 112 drones—including Shahed models—at Ukraine, striking multiple regions. Ukraine’s air defense systems shot down 73 UAVs, but the attack still caused damage across Odesa, Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Mykolaiv, and Chernihiv. The drones were launched from Bryansk, Kursk, and Millerovo. Ukrainian aircraft, missile units, and electronic warfare systems responded to the coordinated drone swarm. While 36 decoy drones vanished from radar, the repeated strikes continue to threaten both civilian infrastructure and military targets across Ukraine. #Ukraine #Russia #DroneAttack #ShahedDrones #Kyiv #Odesa #Zhytomyr #Mykolaiv #Chernihiv #UkraineWar #UAVStrike #AirDefense #UkraineNews #RussiaUkraineWar #MilitaryNews #BreakingNews #WarUpdate #MissileStrike #CivilianDamage #Putin #Zelensky #DefenseSystems #NightAttack #DroneSwarm #GeoPolitics #NATO #Bryansk #Kursk #Millerovo #UkrainianAirForce #WarInUkraine Also Read West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Drone Attack on Srinagar Airport Thwarted as Blasts Occur in Jammu and South Kashmir :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/drone-attack-srinagar-airport-thwarted-jammu-kashmir-011-4148943.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~
