According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, one of these demands is the capture of Krivoy Rog, the hometown of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky , by its troops.

But capturing a city of about one million is a formidable task for the Russian army, which has already lost more than 23,000 soldiers in the two and a half months of war.

Boris Karpichkov, a former KGB agent who fled Russia, told The Sun that Putin “has lost his mind” and is “obsessed with paranoid ideas.” The Kremlin dictator not only suffers from Parkinson’s disease and cancer, in need of urgent surgery, he also has early stages of dementia and paranoia that drives him crazy.

Although Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov claims that Putin’s health is excellent, his recent public appearances show a deterioration in his physical condition.

Mr. Karpichkov claims that even members of Putin’s inner circle are not told the truth about his state of health in order to protect his “strong man” image.

“He considers literally everyone, including those in the Russian special services and even in his inner circle, “traitors.” He is so suspicious and so obsessed with his paranoia that he can now be compared to a Stalinist tyrant. I myself am not a doctor … but there are serious concerns that Putin suffers from numerous physical ailments, possibly due to sports injuries in his younger years.Another potential concern is that, judging from the way he moves, Putin may be suffering from the initial stages of either Parkinson’s disease or another serious illness caused by some form of cancer, such as a brain tumor,” says Boris Karpichkov.

We have already talked about all Putin’s diagnoses here . However, the Kremlin still denies that anything is wrong with their leader. And, apparently, they are preparing to magnificently celebrate the dictator’s 70th birthday in October.
