Ilyumzhinov again about UFOs: "When they fly for us, take us with you"

Former President of the International Chess Federation Kirsan Ilyumzhinov once again raised the topic of contacts with extraterrestrial civilizations. In an interview with Ksenia Sobchak, he said that his entourage shows an unexpected interest in this.

According to Ilyumzhinov, dozens of acquaintances turn to him with the same question: when they will fly for him again and whether it is possible to go together. Some, according to him, motivate this by the fact that the usual life is bored even with considerable wealth. "You have a billion, why would you go there?" “Yes, everything is already tired, even though there I will look,” he told the dialogue in an interview with Sobchak.

Separately, Ilyumzhinov touched upon the topic of foreign leaders who allegedly had contacts with unidentified objects. He declined to be named, but pointed to South Korea. According to him, he was told about the incident by the wife of this politician, who knew the details. The former head of FIDE claims that the couple discussed this experience with him, and the politician himself warned his wife against public statements because of the approaching parliamentary elections.

Ilyumzhinov also linked his statements with a willingness to sacrifice his career. He called the public recognition a “political suicide” and said he was ready to leave the positions of FIDE president and head of Kalmykia so that humanity would realize that it is not alone in the universe.

This is not the first such speech by Ilyumzhinov. He had previously recounted an alleged 1997 contact when he was allegedly taken to an alien ship in yellow suits.
