Vladimir Putin may have cancer, according to ex-military intelligence officer [View all]

A former military intelligence officer now working at the Pentagon said analysts have been studying Putin and believe he is gravely ill

Vladimir Putin may be seriously ill, a former intelligence officer now working for the Pentagon claims. The unnamed source says Russia's president has terminal bowel cancer.

It is believed Putin's “puffy face” is a sign he is having chemotherapy or on steroids. The source also suggests that his solemn expression is because he is in constant pain.

This could have made him more aggressive or he may be attacking Ukraine as he knows he is dying and wants to leave a legacy, the source claims. The former officer said analysts have been studying Putin, 69, and believe he is gravely ill.
