– The Kremlin: complete nonsense, he is in very good health
Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely to resign early next year due to health problems because he probably suffers from Parkinson’s disease. This was written by the British newspaper “Sun”, citing Russian sources.
Speculation intensified on Thursday when Russian political scientist Valery Solovyov, nicknamed the “Political Nostradamus”, suggested to the Echo of Moscow that there could be a handover of the presidency by January 2021, and that this could be done “for medical reasons”. He did not give an exact diagnosis, but referred to an Internet channel where suspicions were expressed that Putin had Parkinson’s.
According to Professor Solovyov, Putin’s family and especially his longtime lover, former gymnast Alina Kabayeva, insisted that he step down from power. The two daughters of the Russian leader, Maria Vorontsova and Ekaterina Tikhonova, agreed.
“His family has a great influence on him. He will make known his plans to leave power in January,” said the political scientist. Solovyov also explains that the president

Putin, 68, has ruled Russia for more than 20 years and has ruled it the longest since Stalin. Although she carefully keeps her private life a secret, it has long been written about her relationship with Kabayeva and that they have children, including twins born last year.
Video images circulating on the Russian Internet, allegedly made on November 4, 2020, raised concerns about the health of Russia’s “iron man.” Some were able to see that their legs were constantly moving, as well as clutching the back of a chair, betraying an attempt to hide severe pain. The observers did not fail to notice that

Speculation about Putin’s possible resignation comes amid legislative changes that grant him the status of senator for life, as well as those that guarantee former presidents.

From now on, the former Russian heads of state will not only be responsible for possible crimes committed during their mandate, as provided for by current legislation. They will be exempted from criminal responsibility for all their actions.
“This is complete nonsense,” said a Kremlin spokesman, adding that Putin may have Parkinson’s. Dmitry Peskov said the Russian leader was “in excellent health” and had no plans to resign anytime soon.
However, the rumors that Putin has Parkinson’s disease are not from yesterday, recalls the Sun. In 2015, a Dutch neurologist noticed that the Kremlin master moved his left arm significantly less than his right, keeping it stretched against his body. This explains his rather strange gait. Such asymmetry is believed to suggest a predisposition to Parkinson’s and a possible development of the disease later.
Putin’s advisers have always dismissed speculation about his health, given his established image as an athlete: he rides, plays hockey, dives and swims in icy waters.
