This takes c4 away from the white knight. Moreover, a2-a4 isn't dangerous anymore.

🔹 Oleg Romanishin
🔹 Ukrainian Chess Grandmaster

🔰 Oleg Mikhailovich Romanishin is a Ukrainian chess grandmaster and former European junior champion.

🔘 Title: Grandmaster (1976)
🔘 FIDE rating: 2440 (July 2018)

🔰Oleg Mikhailovich Romanishin was born in Lvov, then in the USSR. Awarded the IM title in 1973 and the GM title in 1976, he was European Junior Champion in 1972-73. A pupil of Viktor Emmauelovich Kart (born 1929), he has achieved fine tournament results such as =1st at the October Revolution 60th Anniversary (1977), 2nd at Tilburg 1979, =3rd at Sochi 1982, 1st at Moscow 1985, and =1st at Reggio Emilia 1985-86, but has never qualified as a FIDE Candidate.
He is reputed to have said that "Draws make me angry" and remains a strong GM with an aggressive style just a level below the top rank. He is also a leading chess opening theorist.

🔰Many honours and awards were bestowed on Romanishin as a young man. After winning the European Junior Championship in 1973, he became an International Master the same year. In 1974, Romanishin was a member of the victorious USSR team at the World Student Team Championship held in Teesside, England, where he scored the best result for board 4 (8/9).

🔰The following year, he had a terrific result at the USSR Championship, sharing second place with Boris Gulko, Mikhail Tal and Rafael Vaganian, after Tigran Petrosian. In 1976, his Grandmaster title was ratified.
