The fact that Vladimir Putin shook hands at the Victory Day Parade with the one he doesn’t use is a “clear indication” there’s something “fundamentally wrong”, according to Former head of MI6 Sir Richard Dearlove.
Rumours have been swirling about the Russian President’s health and how he may be ill with either Parkinson’s, dementia, or blood cancer after Mr Putin was pictured at the parade with a heavy blanket draped across his legs.
“Take one look at him, if it was your father, what would you think? He was seriously ill,” Sir Richard told Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan.
“I think if he’s seriously ill, his judgement may be impaired, so you have a collision as it were between the geopolitics of Russia and its loss of Ukraine and Putin’s health.
“I think that’s a pretty unsavoury combination, in fact.”
