Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly being treated for cancer with Western medicine as he enters what might be his last 12 months on the helm of Russia.
Amid a slew of sanctions imposed on Putin, the Kremlin and his regime, the 70-year-old leader is allegedly being kept alive by Western treatments to slow the cancer’s spread, based on Russian historian and political analyst Valery Solovey.
“I can say that without this [foreign] treatment he would definitely not have been in public life within the Russian Federation,” Solovey told Ukrainian media.
“He uses essentially the most advanced treatments, [and] goal therapy which Russia cannot provide him with,” Solovey said.
Solovey tells Ukrainian YouTube channel Odesa Film Studio that he’s “certain” Putin is getting specialized therapy that’s unavailable in Russia.
“I’d say that the treatment has been too successful,” Solovey added. “They’ve been treating him too well.”
Even with help from Western medicine, Solovey claimed “the tip is already in sight, even based on the doctors who’re curating this treatment, because no medication could be endlessly successful.”
Since Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine in February, rumors about Putin’s allegedly degrading health have been widespread. It’s believed Putin is battling each pancreatic cancer and Parkinson’s disease.
“I can confirm he has been diagnosed with early stage Parkinson’s disease, nevertheless it’s already progressing,” a security services insider reportedly claimed in a leak of emails concerning the Russian strongman’s deteriorating condition.
“This fact will likely be denied in every possible way and hidden,” the source reportedly added.
The Kremlin has denied the Russian leader, who likes to project a picture of strength, suffers from any form of illnesses.
Earlier this month, the Russian strongman apparently fell down five steps at his home, landed on his tailbone and soiled himself. Regardless that his security team rushed to his side, the cruel fall caused him to “involuntarily defecate” based on reports, which the Kremlin later denied.
