Kiev: Russian President Vladimir Putin has less than two years to live as he suffers from multiple “grave” illnesses, according to the head of the Ukrainian intelligence service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Major General Kyrylo Budanov said Kiev spies who infiltrated the Kremlin made the claims based on “human intelligence”, Daily Mail reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Putin doesn’t have a long life ahead of him,” Budanov was quoted as saying by USA Today reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putin’s health has been subject to fierce rumour for months, escalating after he was pictured gripping a table during a meeting with defence minister Sergei Shoigu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier this month, the 69-year-old President’s legs appeared to buckle during a speech in Moscow, adding to the growing rumours of the Russian leader’s health woes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putin was attending an awards ceremony at the Kremlin when he looked unsteady on his feet, Daily Mail reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He swayed back and forth before his speech as Russian filmmaker Nikita Mikhalkov accepted a prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It came just days after a Kremlin insider claimed Putin had been advised by doctors not to make any “lengthy” public appearances, having fallen ill amid recent discussions with his military chiefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Russian President felt “a sharp sickness, weakness and dizziness”, while getting up from his desk following a recent video conference with advisers and military leaders, Telegram channel General SVR reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putin’s poor posture and seemingly bloated face and neck sparked speculation about the leader’s health, which is said to have ailed since the invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Kremlin leader was said in April to be in need of an “urgent” cancer operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putin also reportedly suffers from Parkinson’s and “schizophrenic symptoms”, according to a self-styled Kremlin “insider”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
