Over the years there have been several rumours about Vladimir Putin’ s health, with reports suggesting that he is suffering from cancer and Parkinson's disease - and more recently that he’s been affected by ‘brain fog’ due to long Covid.
Fears over the Russian leader’s state of mind once again arose after US Senator Marco Rubio appeared to suggest that 'something is off' with Putin, following Russia ’s brutal invasion of Ukraine.
The Republican Senator for Florida wrote: "I wish I could share more, but for now I can say it's pretty obvious to many that something is off with #Putin. He has always been a killer, but his problem now is different & significant It would be a mistake to assume this Putin would react the same way he would have 5 years ago."
