I say what I know and what I know is certain. I have been involved in five wars, on the front lines, even though I am only 34 years old. When you Wes… - Nicolai Lilin

The Siberian community in which I grew up came from a much older one that had already developed a system of self-control and was opposed to any form of power. Not only socialism, they opposed the Tsar's regime and its slavery. [...] By the late 1980s, I already knew that the community was dying. When I started writing I realized that this tradition had helped them survive, but it couldn't save them.

From an interview with Alessandro Mezzena Lona, "Nicolai Lilin racconta la sua sporca guerra combattuta in Cecenia", Il Piccolo, 20 May 2011.

Since I have always dealt with security, a private volunteer company linked to the Vatican infiltrated me into some Satanist groups for two years. I discovered a large pedophile ring there between Russia and Europe. I have reported on several people, but the problem is that they are thoroughly protected. [...] I can say that I uncovered the existence of a pedophile network in Munich. The report was never followed up. After all, a porn film with the participation of a minor, shot in a few copies, can cost from 50 to 70 thousand euros. I discovered some really disgusting things. [...] I hoped to continue working in this environment, but, after the publication of my two novels, my face is just too well-known. Plus, I now have a five-year-old daughter. However, I will never stop telling everyone that pedophiles are rich and powerful, and not just in Italy: in Belgium there are pro-pedophile associations that help them hide.
