Vladimir Putin “will no longer attend meetings” due to his “sharp deterioration in health”, insiders have claimed.

The health of the Russian president has been the subject of speculation for months, with rumors circulating that he used a look-alike to attend certain events.

With the tyrant's war in Ukraine unplanned, it has been suggested that Putin is hesitating between resorting to nuclear weapons or conceding defeat.
