Russian President Vladimir Putin is battling both pancreatic cancer and Parkinson’s disease, according to a new report citing leaked Kremlin emails.
A Russian intelligence source appeared to confirm in messages what has long been rumored about the 70-year-old strongman.

“I can confirm he has been diagnosed with early stage Parkinson’s disease, but it’s already progressing.”

“Putin is regularly stuffed with all kinds of heavy steroids and innovative painkilling injections to stop the spread of pancreatic cancer he was recently diagnosed with.”

“In his close circle, there are rumors that in addition to pancreatic cancer, which is gradually spreading, Putin also has prostate cancer.”
The bombshell report comes after Putin was recently captured on video with what appeared to be IV track marks on the back of his hand as he was grasping a soldier’s arm while visiting a boot camp in the Ryazan region.
Rumors about Putin’s supposedly poor health have been swirling for months, fueled in large part by unsubstantiated reports from the Telegram channel General SVR, which claimed that he suffers from cancer, Parkinson’s and a schizoaffective disorder.
The Russian independent outlet Proekt claimed that Putin is always accompanied by medical personnel, including top oncologists, whenever he goes on official visits.
Game theory specialist Georgy Egorov has warned that a nuke attack “makes sense” for Putin if he only has a few months to live.

“It makes sense to use nuclear weapons for Putin in only one situation – if the rumors about his health problems are true — if he has a few months left to live — he does not want to go down in history as a loser.”
