Gonzalo Lira López is a Chilean–American novelist and film director known by the pseudonym Coach Red Pill who currently resides in Ukraine. Since 15 April 2022 he has been missing from his home in Kharkov; by 20th of April there were concerning reports of his likely capture and killing by Ukrainian forces.[1][2][3][4]
On the 22nd there was a short interview with him, which was recorded by Alex Christoforou (The Duran), to say that he was arrested by the SBU but is in good health. He was told he is not allowed to leave the area.[5]

Background
Son of Gonzalo Lira Valdés and María Isabel López Hess, Gonzalo Lira grew up in the San Fernando Valley, New York, Miami and also in Guayaquil, Ecuador. He completed his studies at Colegio Saint George's College in Santiago de Chile .
In 1997, Gonzalo Lira published the book "Tomáh Errázurih". After settling in Manhattan in 1998, Lira wrote, produced and directed a comedic short film, "So Kinky". In 2002, he wrote the book "Acrobat" which was made into a movie by Miramax. That same year, Lira returned to Chile and began producing and writing in Spanish. In 2006 Lira co-wrote, produced and directed "Catalina's Kidnapping" , called in Chile "Secuestro".
Between 2010 and 2012, Gonzalo Lira published economic analysis on his blog, he made a forecast about the hyperinflation that threatened the US dollar.
In 2017 he was active on social networks, especially YouTube , under the name "Coach Red Pill".
In Ukraine
At the start of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Gonzalo Lira was in the Ukrainian capital Kiev, from where he expressed his assessment of what was happening on his YouTube channel, dissenting markedly from the point of view of the Western media. In particular, he said that “although Ukraine may win the propaganda war, Russia wins the real war by capturing territory. Already 15% of the territory of Ukraine is under the control of the Russian army.
One of his videos was shown cropped in a Russian television program without Lira's authorisation and making it appear pro-Russian, which caused him to be expelled from the Premier Palace Hotel in Kiev. Gonzalo Lira wanted to return to Kharkov with his family, which he did after the incident. Lira has been critical of the government of Volodymyr Zelensky and the oligarch Íhor Kolomoyskyi.
On 17 April 2022, George Galloway announced on his television program MOATS that an interview with Gonzalo Lira scheduled for that edition could not be carried out due to his presumed disappearance in Ukraine. Friends and relatives of Lira confirmed that they had lost contact with him since April 15, a disappearance confirmed by the Chilean Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Lira last wrote on his Twitter account on April 15.
