The surreal scene shows a Kremlin meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Viktor Zolotov, 68, who is director of the Russian National Guard and has lost thousands of his men in the war.
A grimacing Vladimir Putin was seen tightly gripping his desk as his most trusted general reported to him that invaded Ukrainians are showing their “support” for occupying Russian soldiers.

It is not the first time Putin has appeared to grip his desk and people have noted previously it may be his way of stopping his hand from shaking uncontrollably amid suspicions he is suffering from early Parkinson’s Disease.

Zolotov is believed to be trusted by Putin, unlike defence minister Sergei Shoigu who he has apparently lost confidence in.

Last I heard was that The Ghost of Kiev was aboard a HIMARS rocket somewhere over Kherson screaming “we won”.
:)
This is silly. Ever see the pics they manage to get of Trump? Ever pause a youtube video of someone talking? You’ll catch many odd looking expressions.
I think he is crying out for help to not slump over and fall out of the chair. /sarcasm
He looks to be two breaths away from death itself. /sarcasm
Has he died yet? If not, it will be very soon now. /sarcasm
LOL....batboy has nothin’ on these stories!
The big tables are now being used in Kherson to cross the Dnipro since all the bridges went boom!
I don’t trust you. I need pictures.
If that’s the photo, there isn’t much gripping, but that hand looks swollen.
Compare the size to Putin’s visitor’s hand size.
Maybe he’ll go to a two-syllable nom de guerre like Stalin did. He went from the Georgian last name of Dzhugashvili to a name we could all say.
Laaaame.
Not only can the left not meme, they also can’t quip.
Putler’s changing generals like he changes his diapers but no matter; pitiful Russia will never again be a major military power.
“pitiful Russia will never again be a major military power...”
Well, to be fair, it is the Russian winter that has always been the greatest component of their military power, and they still have that.
Russia plays better on defense than on offense.
She used to FABULOUS as a GAY Clown on the weekends.
I don’t see white knuckles in that photo, and where is the grimace? Putin looks like that all the time. The Mirror is being extremely melodramatic.
Watch Crimea. More fun soon.
This is a grimace: 😬
Same as you have been doing on the topic of covid vaccines.
Don’t remember seeing those in the past. Thanks for sharing. They explain everything I need to know about that tabloid.
