What regarding Putin? Some footage released yesterday is increasing the momentum of this question that has been raised all over the world recently. Many comments and observations are now flooding the cyber world. Putin’s mannerisms in footage of a bilateral meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Cuban President Miguel Dues Canel have fueled debate regarding his health.
A part of the footage shared shows that Putin’s hands are turning purple in an unusual way. Putin can be seen clutching his chair and moving his legs nervously during the meeting with the Cuban president. Eight months into the war in Ukraine, victory for Russia is far from over. Adding to all this, rumors regarding Putin’s health have become stronger once more. A few months ago, there was a US intelligence report that Putin was suffering from cancer.
Earlier this month, pictures of Putin’s arms with strange markings and black spots spread across social media. One section claims that these are scars from taking injections. They say that the black marks on the hands are proof of not being able to get injections in other parts of the body. And the fact that Putin, who has been leading Russia by the tip of his finger, has passed the age of seventy.
Russia is now in the biggest confrontation with the West since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Despite being at the forefront of the world powers, they have not yet been able to achieve absolute supremacy in Ukraine. The question remains, why wait months for Russia, which has the weapons to conquer in seconds? Or is Putin aiming for something bigger than that? Putt’s aim is to take a step back and fight back with increased vigor like a tiger lurking. And so the questions go on. Russia, war, Putin, health, etc. all come down to one question. What regarding Putin?
