Timeline
Yevgeny Nikolayevich Prilepin (Евге́ний Никола́евич Приле́пин; born 7 July 1975), writing as Zakhar Prilepin (Захар Прилепин), and sometimes using another pseudonym, Yevgeny Lavlinsky (Евгений Лавлинский), is a Russian writer, politician and paramilitary leader.
Yevgeny Prilepin was born 7 July 1975 in the village of Ilyinka, Ryazan Oblast, in the family of a teacher and a nurse.
His family lived there until 1984, when they moved to Dzerzhinsk.
He started working at age 16 as a loader in a bread shop.
He graduated from the Faculty of Philology of the Nizhny Novgorod State University and the School of Public Policy.
He worked as a laborer, a security guard, and served as a squad leader in the Russian police group OMON, and subsequently took part in the fighting in Chechnya in 1996 and 1999.
In 1999, due to financial difficulties, Prilepin left OMON and got a job as a journalist at the Nizhny Novgorod newspaper Delo.
He published under many pseudonyms, the most famous of which is Eugene Lavlinsky.
In 2000, he became the editor of the newspaper.
At the same time, Prilepin began to work on his first novel, The Pathologies.
"The newspaper, however, was horribly yellow and sometimes even reactionary, although it was part of the holding of Sergei Kiriyenko. And I realized that I spent a life for nothing – and began to write a novel. At first, it was a novel about love, but eventually (I worked for three or four years), it turned into a novel about Chechnya as about the most powerful experience of my life – as the saying goes, what we are doing always turns out to be a Kalashnikov rifle."
Works by Prilepin were published in various newspapers, including Limonka, Literary Gazette, The Edge, General Line, as well as in the magazines North, Friendship of Peoples, Roman-gazeta, New World, Snob, Russian pioneer, and Russian life.
He was the chief editor of the People's Observer, the newspaper of Nizhny Novgorod's National Bolshevik Party branch.

In July 2012, he published a short essay titled "A Letter to Comrade Stalin," a Stalinist critique aimed against modern Russian "liberal society", which was widely regarded as antisemitic.
The media has repeatedly mentioned Prilepin's friendship with Vladislav Surkov, whose cousin is married to Prilepin's sister, Yelena.
In July 2012 Prilepin published a short essay titled "A Letter to comrade Stalin", which provoked outrage and accusations of antisemitism.

On 29 October 2019, he created the public movement For Truth (За правду).

However, the party merged into A Just Russia in February 2021.

For his support of the war in Ukraine, Prilepin has been sanctioned by Australia, Canada, the European Union, New Zealand, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom The European Union had included him in the very first round of sanctions on 28 February 2022 on those supporting the invasion.
