I acknowledge myself as a man of 61 years, preparing to publish in March my 37th book. I also acknowledge myself as a man, living with 21 years old girl, possessing a white bull terrier, white rat and a hamster. I also acknowledge myself as a leader of National-Bolsheviks Party, which I have founded ten years ago. And that is exactly in that last capacity as a political leader that I am hated by authority of my beloved country of Russia. As it is not enough I became few months ago the Chairman of movement “Russia without Putin.”
Every day, or almost every day my assistant Michael brings me reports of electronical medias as well as press-clips about deeds of National-Bolsheviks Party. Headlines say for example on March 12: “newsru.com, “Natsbols have seized a Putin’s headquarters at Saint Petersburg and have handcuffed themselves to Latvian embassy in Moscow.” News of party activities are coming from numerous provincial cities: in Irkutsk, Putin’s reception office was attacked. In Chelyabinsk meeting NBP in alliance with communists under the slogan “Russia Without Putin” have taken place. In Barnaul, meeting NBP, but before unknown persons have painted in black the FSB building. Orsk, Novosibirsk, Rostov-sur-Don, Ryazan, Kaluga, Nizhni Novgorod, Krasnoyarsk, Magnitogorsk, Kharkov, Kishenev - those cities where National-Bolsheviks have staged some actions in the beginning of March.

part two of the eXile interview with Eduard Limonov
— To me, His Butler’s Story is one of your best books. One of the reasons I was shocked when I first read it was that somehow you managed to describe what Jenny, an ordinary American of the time, was like. I read that and looked around at the rest of American literature and nobody repeated it. I always wondered what made it so hard to Americans to describe carefully what was happening. You needed to go to a Russian…
— Probably really because I was new and fresh from the other world. What I saw was probably banality for the Americans. And I came from a completely different social situation. And I had some kind of a good eye… (more…)

The member of the NBP Central Committee Sergei Fomchenkov is answering at the instance of Edward Limonov.
1. Could you present us the National-Bolshevik Party, its ideology and aims?
The National-Bolshevik Party now represents an acting political organization with 10 years of history of struggle, counting about 12000 members, having more than 50 regional departments around Russia. The party members are mainly the youth(15-30 years old), people discontent with their social position, marginals, nonordinary personalities with literary and artistic propensity, even “hereditary” revolutionaries. On the whole all the strata of society, different nationalities, religions are represented.
Our ideology is based on the works of such theorists of national-bolshevism as Ustryalov, Agurski, the works of Edward Limonov. We also borrow the ideas of current importance from Lenin, Mussolini, Mao and others.
Our aim is to come to power in Russia by means of National Revolution. We aspire to the establishment of the national and social justice in Russia, to the complete replacement of the ruling class - the power of functionaries and former nomenclature elite removal, redistribution and nationalization of property.

I thought about some nice, lyrical subject for that my column at “eXile”, but then Mark Ames asked me to write about last adventures of my gorgeous party because first thing what Mark heard on the news coming from US to Russia, were the news about militia platoons, storming general headquarters of NBP. So, I will report on some events, the only principal ones.

What follows is the first part of the roundtable, in which we cover Russian and world politics at the turn of the century. Next issue we will print our discussion about Limonov’s own books, the practical side of writing, and his views on what makes for quality literature.

My personal worst moment of the year 2003 was late afternoon January 31st. At Saratov’s Districts Court, public prosecutor Colonel Verbin demanded for me quarter of century of imprisonment. Ten years of imprisonment for allegedly planning terrorist attacks on territory of Kazakhstan, 4 years for preparation to organize outlawed armed formations, 8 years for a purchase of Kalashnikovs and 3 years for a call to overthrow the Government of Russian Federation. Exactly 25 years demanded Verbin, that tall and skinny as a match colonel, wearing blue uniform of Prosecutor.
But “by the way of partial reduction” merciful and compassionate Russian Justice, personified by colonel, demanded for me “only” 14 years of imprisonment in the camp of “severe regime.” It was worstiest day of 2003. But going to court on February 4, just a few days later, early in the morning I saw on television face of my wife, Natasha. Television said that my wife have died as a saint during her sleep at night from 2 to 3rd February. Then, until the day of April 15, I have lived under the heavy burden of 14 years. On April 15 I was miraculously sentenced to 4 years. I know, I wrote about that, but anyway, it was my worst season of life. (more…)

Today is election day in Russia. Russia is my beloved country, where I was born sixty years ago in the city of Dzerzhinsk, named after Polish aristocrat, turned to be a chief of Revolutionary terror machine of All Russian Extraordinary Comission. My destiny was always predicted on that terribly cold February Day to be born in the city of Dzerzhinsk, in another words I was damned somehow on my birthday, condemned to be tied up to the destiny of organization, founded by Mr. Dzerzhinski. So, I was duly detained by KGB officers in 1973 and consequently was forced to go abroad in 1974. I was arrested by FSB officers in 2001 and was placed in FSB prison “Lefortovo.” Then I spend two and a half years in various prisons of my country. Beloved country, of course. And my President in present time is a colonel of KGB. I want to say that he was a colonel of KGB and later he was a head of the same organisation that Dzerzhinski have founded. These are my thoughts in cold election Day in Moscow apartment. I am looking from my window. (more…)

At 5 a.m. on October 25, at Novosibirskii airport, was arrested Michail Khodorkovski, Mr. Getty of Russia oil business, the richest of all Russian oligarchs. He was captured by FSB commandos, probably by the very same man who arrested me a few years ago. Probably by a brave lieutenant-colonel Michail Kuznetsov, because it was he who commanded a small army of FSB soldiers, consisting of contingents from Novosibirsk, from Altaiski Krai and from Altai Republic. The structure of FSB is such, that every region of Russian Federation has its own FSB Directorate, usually headed by a General-Major. Big operations are mounted by assembling forces of region’s FSB, but a few outsiders, Muscovites, were sent to lead them.
So, at 5 a.m. Putin’s boys have stormed Khodorkovski’s airplane. Early in the morning. I wonder, why they so attached to that tradition of morning arrest? By an honest belief that in early morning a man is most vulnerable, sleepy, weak, he doesn’t expect to be attacked? (more…)

Whole that day of August 31, 2001, I felt unusual unrest and anxiety. However without visible reason. It was usual prison day at Lefortovo: under the light of two electrical bulbs one always feels like a tortured animal. Light bulbs, the noises of radio, pale face of my cell-mate bandit Mishka, everything was at place, everyday banal process of torturing was going on. But today as in addition I felt like a heavy weight was placed on me. At first I thought that I becoming psychopat. “Edward, you are finally giving up, after those months of prison life,” - said I to myself. Then I thought that some trouble coming. Some more trouble, because I was in trouble up to the neck. It was already 5 p.m., only one hour before the end of prison working day, when prison soldier opened a feeding hole and said: “Savenko, be ready to go. Without belongings.”
“Without belongings” signified that I was summoned up inside of prison. While putting my best clothes on I thought that my lawyer Beliak came to visit me too late in the day, we will not be able to talk much. Then door opened, I stepped out. Soldiers searched me. Then I stepped to the left. “Not this way. Go other way,” said mustached soldier. It was clear then, that I am going to Investigators office and not to the lawyers’ room.

SARATOV, Volga Region — Writer Eduard Limonov has never been one to keep his thoughts to himself, especially when it comes to “the evil force called The System.”
Under communism, Limonov’s anti-Soviet views got him expelled from the country. When he returned to Russia in the mid-1990s after 20 years abroad, he headed up a fringe ultranationalist movement and railed against the new regime in the Kremlin, preaching extremism and social justice “by any means necessary.” (more…)
