Hans niemann: FIDE must punish players for public accusations and insinuations, especially regarding a 14 year old.

Hans: “FIDE must punish players for public accusations and insinuations, especially regarding a 14 year old. Nepo made similar comments regarding Faustino Oro(12).

FIDE must set a precedent to prevent this from happening in the future. NBA fines players for complaining about the refs, this is far more extreme in comparison.”

Hans said this in response to Ian who said,

Nepo: “14-year-old boy, right? Well, the boy who deliberately does not make a check move —hats off to him. That is very respectable.

I would have zero suspicions about this game, but his en passant instead of a check — it leaves a bad taste. Like, why? How? For what?

Aaron, my friend… Well, fortunately, we will not play against Aaron again in the tournament, because we already learned our lesson from him.”
