Was he American spy in 1972? Boris Spassky says so. Do we have sources to verify or falsify this claim? I am quoting him "I took as one of my seconds Iivo Nei from Estonia. He turned out to be an American spy. He conspired with Robert Byrne, who ran the chess section of the New York Times and would be his co-author for a book on the match. Nei was aware of all our ideas – and the Americans waited for information from him. If I’d decided to leave, Fischer’s team would have been informed about it immediately." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir artur (talk • contribs) 09:44, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
