“We are told he is suffering from headaches and when he appears on TV he needs pieces of paper with everything written in huge letters to read what he’s going to say,” the Russian officer said.
“They are so big, each page can only hold a couple of sentences. His eyesight is seriously worsening," the spy said adding that Putin’s limbs are “now also shaking uncontrollably”.
Speculations about the Russian President’s health have been reported to originate with the popular Russian Telegram channel General SVR.
