An video-interview with chess legend Alexander Beliavsky, participant of the Univé Chess tournament. Beliavsky speaks about winning the Soviet Championship four times and interview with chess legend Oleg Romanishin. Romanishin tells about his contributions to opening theory and his second place at the 1975 Soviet Championship.

Four-time USSR Champion Alexander Beliavsky is still an active chess player at the age of 61, and in a recent interview he talked about the challenge Vassily Ivanchuk and Viswanathan Anand face playing elite chess in their mid-40s. As a coach for Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, though, he’s also very much in tune with the new generation, and explains what sets Magnus Carlsen and Anatoly Karpov apart from other chess players.
