re: Cancer-Stricken Putin Retches & Splutters Through Meeting
Vladimir Putin Set to Vanish For Cancer Surgery Mystery Russian Telegram Account Says
Vladimir Putin has secretly nominated Nikolai Patrushev, a former KGB counterintelligence officer who once headed the FSB, to take “control” of Russia while he is incapacitated.

Vladimir Putin may soon vanish for a period as he is due to undergo surgery linked to cancer, according to a new claim.
He has allegedly secretly nominated his hardline security council security secretary Nikolai Patrushev - a former KGB counterintelligence officer - to take “control” of Russia while he is incapacitated.
Shadowy Patrushev, 70, is seen as a key architect of the Ukrainian war strategy and the man who convinced Putin that Kyiv was awash with neo-Nazis.
The extraordinary unconfirmed claims come from General SVR Telegram channel, which first raised issues of Putin’s health - including abdominal cancer and Parkinson’s - some 18 months ago.
They come amid speculation that Putin will announce all-out war in Ukraine, and order mass mobilisation of military-age men. Such a move would be seen as high-risk since many may refuse to fight.
It is suggested Putin, 69, has already delayed surgery, which is now unlikely to take place before he presides over the grandiose Red Square 9 May Victory Day commemoration of the defeat of Hitler.
The surgery had been scheduled for the second half of April but was delayed, it was claimed.
"Putin was recommended to undergo surgery, the date of which is being discussed and agreed,” said a report from the outlet which claims to be privy to insider Kremlin information.
“There seems to be no particular urgency, but it cannot be delayed either.”
It went on: “The Russian President Vladimir Putin has oncology, and the latest problems identified during [his latest] examination are associated with this disease.”
He also suffers from “Parkinson's disease and schizoaffective disorder”.
The latter is defined as “a mental health disorder that is marked by a combination of schizophrenia symptoms, such as hallucinations or delusions, and mood disorder symptoms, such as depression or mania”.
The Kremlin has always strongly denied Putin has medical problems and portrays him in robust health, even during several mysterious absences in recent years.

But Sir Richard Dearlove, an ex-MI6 boss recently told GB News there is often a link between the disease and a “loss of restraint”.
Sir Dearlove, who headed up the secret service from 1999 until 2004, said: "Maybe Putin’s behaviour - maybe his rationality - is prejudiced or compromised by illness.
"The best explanation, that we don’t know whether it’s correct or not, is that he may have Parkinson’s.
"That certainly I’ve heard from several neurologists who say that loss of restraint, psychosis, are very common Parkinson’s symptoms."

In a video detailing the General SVR claims, the outlet’s source - supposedly an anonymous former high-ranking Kremlin military figure - said: “Putin has discussed that he will be undergoing medical procedures.
“Doctors insist that he needs an operation, but the date has not yet been determined.
“He will have surgery and while he is incapacitated.”
The unconfirmed source went on: “I don't know for exactly how long he will be incapacitated after the surgery…
“I think it'll be for a short time.”
