Netanyahu Ties in Chess Against Gelfand


Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday took an hour from his busy schedule for a game of chess against world champion Boris Gelfand. Jewish Agency for Israel Chairman Natan Sharansky was at the prime minister’s side, assisting and lending support. Sharansky is known as a formidable chess player.

The game ended in a tie, as did an earlier game between Sharansky and Gelfand.

  1. “… Natan Sharansky was at the prime minister’s side, assisting and lending support.”

    “…an earlier game between Sharansky and Gelfand.”
    So Sharansky played, not Netanyahu?
