Vladimir Putin’s top Russian diplomat has responded to speculation over the president’s health saying no “sane person can suspect any signs of an illness or ailment”.
The claims came as the Kremlin has recently been stung into denying speculation that the Russian president was sick from terminal illnesses.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov - Putin’s top diplomat - publicly addressed swirling rumours that the Russian leader is suffering from cancer, Parkinson’s disease or a schizoaffective disorder.
