VLADIMIR Putin appeared to retch and splutter through a televised meeting today - sparking fresh fears for his health after claims he's being treated for cancer.
The Russian president's face looked bloated as he gripped the table in front of him during talks with Sergey Chemezov, head of state-owned defence giant Rostec.
Putin, 69, sat opposite Chemezov - an ally since their KGB days in the 1980s - amid rumours he is being treated for cancer.
He seemed to retch several times and struggle to speak throughout the clip released by Russian state TV.

Khrushchev was not Ukrainian, he was Stalin’s boss in Ukraine.
Doc Holiday agrees:
"Why Putin is in his prime."
No he didnt retch.
No he was not Short of Breath
He was sitting as awkwardly placed.
"Khrushchev wasn't born in Ukraine, he was born in the Kalinovka village in the Kursk region, Russia. That said, it just about a couple of miles from the Ukrainian border"
