Russia has never been immune to spies and informers, but the latest claim must have struck President Medvedev as a little bizarre: he has been urged to investigate whether a regional politician passed official secrets to a group of aliens. The request came after Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, the millionaire President of Kalmykia, claimed on state television that he had been visited by aliens at his Moscow apartment several years ago and had spent hours in discussions with them on board their spaceship. The head of the republic said that the humanoid figures wore yellow spacesuits and gave him a tour of their craft, which he described as a semi-transparent half-tube. They had brought him home in the morning, just as his worried driver and two advisers were about to call a citywide search after finding his apartment empty. I am often asked which language I used to talk to them. Perhaps it was on a level of the exchange of ideas, Mr Ilyumzhinov, who is also president of the international chess federation FIDE, told the Vladimir Pozner programme on Russias main First Channel. Mr Ilyumzhinov told his interviewer that his encounter had taken place in 1997. I would not have believed it, if I had not had three witnesses.
