“Thank God everything was fine,” declared the 73-year-old president during a visit to an exhibition in Moscow. He explained that he had recently been hospitalized, but was released from the hospital the very next day.
DPA reminds that Putin’s health has been the subject of constant speculation for years. According to the agency, the Kremlin sometimes dramatically emphasizes his physical condition, and in the past photos showed him shirtless in the wilderness or diving behind ancient amphorae.
Despite the Kremlin’s claims, speculation about Putin’s health has recently intensified due to his sometimes prolonged absences from the public eye. According to DPA, some speculations even suggest that he has a double, but the Kremlin has repeatedly rejected these claims.
