Organising Committee decided to help financially medical treatment of Vesna Rozic
During the visit of Minister of Sport and Youth Alisa Maric to the “Metropol Palace” hotel, the meeting of a part of Organising Committee (President, Vice-Presidents and members of the directorate) was held.
It was decided at the meeting to, instead of organising the traditional party for the participants and organisers the night before the free day, donate the funds reserved for this purpose (1000 Euros) as support for the medical treatment of the Slovenian chess player Vesna Rozic.
Tournament director Ms. Jasna Sakotic, sent a letter of support to Vesna on behalf of the organiser:
Dear Vesna,
Dear Vesna,
When the cancellation of your participation in the European Individual Women’s Chess Championship arrived, we couldn’t possibly imagine how serious the reasons were. However, if there is anything that chess has taught us, it is that we must always struggle. We are confident that you will convincingly win this most important game of your life.
The Organising Committee has decided that the funds reserved for the party on the night before the day-off should be donated for your treatment. Instead of celebrating, we will be with you in our thoughts that night, as well as all the remaining Belgrade nights during the next two weeks.
We believe in you and invite you to play your very next tournament here in Belgrade, and be our dear guest.
Best wishes,
Jasna Sakotic
