Dear Nona Terentievna! On behalf of the World Chess Federation, millions of your admirers all over the world and me personally, I wish to sincerely congratulate you on your special anniversary!
Your chess biography deserves the highest recognition. The pride of Soviet and Georgian chess, the 5th World Champion and five-times champion of the USSR, the first woman who was awarded with Grandmaster title. You are rightly considered the founder of the Georgian chess school. On this wonderful day I join all chess friends in wishing you good health, happiness and success for many years to come.
GENS UNA SUMUS!
Best regards, FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov
