Interview with Maria Butina

Go is a game of emperors and military leaders. It is the oldest and most complex strategy game in history. The simplicity of its rules and the high level of abstraction make Go one of the best tools for developing strategic thinking. A historic event will take place in Vladivostok in 2021 — the 41st World Amateur Go Championship for the first time in its 40-year history will be held in Russia.
This is another entry in our column #aboutGo. This is an interview with Maria Butina, a member of the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation. We had a chance to meet her during the "Russian creativity week" in Moscow where the upcoming World Go festival was presented. Become a participant at this grand event — start playing Go with us!
