The Federation of Chess of Russia is involved in promoting chess development across the country, having opened over a hundred chess clubs and organizing events such as the International Day of Chess. It has established scholarships named after Sergey Karayakin and participated in cultural initiatives, including opening chess venues on Gogolevsky Boulevard. The federation faced temporary suspension of its international membership by FIDE due to non-compliance with CAS rulings regarding participation in tournaments in certain regions.
