Another episode of "Will #Putin outlive #Lukashenka?"

Yesterday Putin received several reports by video call, but it was only Lukashenka's health report and his appearance before the audience that drew the president's keen interest. Putin was told about Lukashenka's...

ailing state and was shown photographs and video footage. The president, hearing that Alexander #Lukashenka had mentioned in his speech the shooting down of four objects over the Bryansk region, said: "Such a faggot, he is teasing while drowning".

On the whole, #Putin liked #Lukashenka's morbid view and let loose several frankly mocking remarks about it. As for the prospects of life of the Belarusian dictator, Putin expressed confidence that "the elk" was still able to stand on his hooves, and that was good.

The situation on the front was of little interest to the president yesterday, and after listening to a short report from the military, he silently disconnected. Both #Putin and those around him are seriously concerned about the lingering deterioration of his health.
4/5 Image
Several people close to #Putin tried to contact him yesterday, but all were refused. By the evening, he was again feeling very ill and called the medics.
In recent days, medics have been spending more time with Putin than anyone else. The crisis seems to be closer than ever.

#Putin's health

It may seem that Putin has progressive sclerosis. Yesterday, he held an operational meeting with the permanent members of the Russian Security Council in videoconference mode. Did he simply forget that he had held a similar meeting three days ago?
1/5 Image
No, the president has not had much trouble with memory so far. So why did #Putin hold two Security Council meetings in three days? Both meetings were routine, even boring. No hot-button issues were raised, and no decisions were taken.
2/5 Image
During yesterday's meeting, only during the closed part, in small groups, they discussed the shooting down of military planes and helicopters in the Bryansk region, but it took no more than 15 minutes. In the end, not even a presidential order on the subject was given.

On Friday, in addition to congratulating Kabayeva and taking a rest for health reasons, #Putin held an operational meeting with the permanent members of the Security Council via videoconference. This meeting did not take much time for the president.

After a short formal part, he traditionally continued the dialogue in a small group, but here, too, the president only listened to a few short reports and closed the meeting. Over the weekend, #Putin, surprisingly calmly, accepted reports on downed military planes and...

helicopters in the Bryansk region via video call. At the conclusion of the military's report, he simply said: "Fuck! Fuck you!" And cut off communication. Somewhat more patiently and politely, he listened on the same subject to Patrushev, who lambasted...

#Putin: "You fucked it all up. Both Kherson and Artemovsk [#Bakhmut] are pissed away"

#Russian President Vladimir Putin continues to be off the news agenda. The only event since last Friday in which Putin took part in person was the Victory Parade, followed by...
1/8 Image
something remotely resembling breakfast. The overall timing, literally, is a few hours. The scant information from official sources about the rare meetings between a man who looks like the president of #Russia and governors does not change the substance of what is going on.

#Putin is gravely ill. He tires quickly and often complains of deteriorating health. Doctors are unable, at least so far, to stabilize his condition. Treatment is not having the desired effect. While Putin used to hold several closed-door meetings and...

Will #Putin outlast #Lukashenko?

#Russian President Vladimir Putin was puzzled by a serious problem yesterday and held several video consultations in this connection. Having seen Lukashenko yesterday, Putin realised that...
1/9 Image
he did not even know approximately how bad #Lukashenko's health was. #Putin thought that Lukashenko's illness was just a ploy that could be used as a cover for his refusal to pay a visit or to speak by phone. The president always dismissed reports that...
2/9 Image
#Lukashenko was seriously ill and considered this a skilful game of the "Potato Elk" (that is what #Putin calls Lukashenko), who could fool anybody but not him. But, this time, the president was astonished at how bad things really are.

#Putin & #Prigozhin

No sooner had Putin secluded himself than he was told about a half-hour YouTube video in which Prigozhin continues to develop his political career as a passionate oppositionist/ ultra patriot, who is already at pains to criticise and...
1/4 Image
humiliate the president, calling him a "complete asshole". After reading the provided printouts of #Pigozhin's quotes, #Putin, according to witnesses, turned sullen and said: "When will he shut up already. He's got a dolt on his head."
2/4 Image
The President's inner circle has for some time offered him to solve the problem with #Prigozhin in a cardinal way, but the potential of the head of the PMC was discerned by some of the power elite, close to the Secretary of the Security Council Nikolai Patrushev, and...

Victory Parade

Yesterday, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin had a difficult day, which did not bring the desired results. But there is one good thing in yesterday's day for Putin - the serious illness of Alexander Lukashenko.
1/5 Image
Compared to the gravely ill Lukashenko, who couldn't walk just a few hundred metres, #Putin, who not without effort made the trip, looked rather chipper. During the greeting Putin and Lukashenko exchanged pleasantries. Putin asked Lukashenko "How are you", to which...
2/5 Image
he received a rude reply "It ain't gonna happen!". The greatly reduced programme of the Victory Day parade and other events with the participation of the president is a consequence of #Putin's deteriorating health.
