Today is the fourth day of the war between Russia and Ukraine. Russia's move to invade Ukraine is being condemned on all sides. Now, Russia's famous chess player Garry Kasparov has launched a scathing attack on President Vladimir Putin. Garry Kasparov has said that Putin has a long record of lying. In an interview, Garry Kasparov said, "One of the defining traits of Putin's character is his lying. He has a long record of lying and ultimately moving everything back and forth for his own benefit."

Kasparov said, "It was completely stupid not to recognize his intentions towards Ukraine because he had never recognized Ukraine as an independent state. For many years, Russian propaganda has denied the existence of Ukraine," Garry Kasparov said, adding that Putin had been preparing for war in Ukraine for a long time. Kasparov says the war could have been avoided if western countries had listened to the Russian president.

Kasparov said: "At the Munich Security Conference in 2007, Putin discussed areas of influence. He wanted the world to be divided like in the past, where big countries would dictatorially teach small countries how to behave. Putin was directly preparing for war in Ukraine," said Russian chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov, adding that the current crisis was not just about Russia and Ukraine. It's about the global security infrastructure. If Putin succeeds, the next number is China-Taiwan. Former world chess champion Garry Kasparov is known to be a critic of Putin. A few days ago, he used words like bankrupt and war machine for Putin in a series of tweets. Garry Kasparov ranks among the greatest players in the world. He was the world's number one player for almost 20 years, which is a record in itself.
