Timothy Dennis Kirby (Russian: Тимоти Деннис Керби), known as Tim Kirby (Тим Керби), is an American-Russian radio personality based in Moscow. In 2006, Kirby migrated from the United States to Russia. He is best known for the program Alien on the radio station Mayak (Радио Маяк).[2] He has often appeared on the Russian TV and multi-media network RT.[3]

In February 11, 2022, he published a video where he ridiculed the warnings from "all" the "mainstream media" at the "same time" against a Russian invasion of Ukraine. He claimed that there was no evidence for a coming Russian invasion of Ukraine. A major part of his reasoning was based on creating a scenario where somebody warned against an invasion of Canada, illustrating this with a map, and then pointing out how strange his idea was.[4] 11 days later, Russia invaded Ukraine.

Personal life

[edit]

Kirby is married to Inge Morozova, a native of Kirov. They have two children.[5] He obtained Russian citizenship in 2018.[1]
