Exclusive translation: Relatives of Russian President Vladimir Putin are concerned about coughing fits, persistent nausea and lack of appetite after the Russian leader underwent a medical examination over the weekend.
His relatives noted that “constant thinness and cough” had become apparent and would be seen as “a sign of the leader’s rapidly deteriorating health,” according to Telegram General SVR.
The channel, which reports it has sources inside the Kremlin, said that despite appearing bloated, the Russian president has lost 18 pounds in recent months.
Putin looked uncomfortable today coughing as he spoke in a calm, stressed tone during a meeting with Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko.
