Megalomania induced by cancer drugs was a factor in Vladimir Putin's decision to launch his disastrous war in Ukraine, new Western intelligence analysis claims.
-snip-
The analysis comes as the Kremlin yesterday admitted that concerns over Putin's health are now a matter of 'state security' amid Covid mutations and emerging flu strains.
This means the Russian leader may retreat even further from public gaze in early 2023 after having cancelled a series of events and appearances in recent months.

The Kremlin has paved the way for Putin to retreat for health-related reasons soon after his annual prerecorded New Year message to Russian citizens.
His spokesman Dmitry Peskov yesterday indicated there were now 'state security' concerns in Russia over Putin's medical condition.
'You see virus mutations, you see strong epidemiological waves of flu of various strains,' he said.
'All of this, given the lessons from the pandemic, obliges those responsible for the security of the president and for his health to take precautions, because in such conditions the health of the president is a matter of state security.'
Peskov said there would be no return anytime soon to Putin's modus operandi before the pandemic, when he regularly held public events and spoke with the media.
'To be honest, it is unlikely that [communication with journalists] will be quite the same as it used to be before the pandemic in the foreseeable future,' Peskov said.
'To expect things to return to what used to be would be a mistake. I would say - no it won't be [back to the same].
'But as these waves subside to their lowest points, then it would be possible to communicate in a freer mode.'

I don’t have to claim anything to you. Fact of the matter is my wife talks to her parents on a weekly basis. As well as multiple friends from her hometown in Donetsk who fled to Europe or America in 2014, for fear of persecution by the invading russians.
I know what russia does to the nations it ‘liberates’, and anyone who shills for russia is an idiot or a garbage human in my book.
Putin's approval rating is currently close to 80% in Russia while Biden's is close to 40% in the US.

It is no wonder these idiotic fantasies have to be recycled again and again to keep the lunacy going.
“Those 8 million Russian speakers were “about to be cleansed” since 2014.”
Your claim, not mine. Mine had to do with what was coming, as seen by Russia and the leaders of 85% of the world’s population (the ones who DID NOT impose sanctions on Russia).
“I don’t have to claim anything to you. Fact of the matter is my wife talks to...”
Fine, I channel Ronald Reagan on a regular basis and he says we have NO BUSINESS messing around in Russia’s backyard in this way, reminding me that he didn’t do it, nor did his predecessors.
Right, because that "bastid" Zelensky is invading a neighboring country for territorial gains unleashing millions of refugees with widespread death and deconstruction.
Daily Mail manure.

Does Biden’s Ukie War cheerleaders really believe this stuff?
It appears every time Vlad has another win on the battlefield or economic front this fantasy stuff gets posted.
Do realize Vlad’s recent ( largest to date) rocket attacks all across Ukraine just hit their AA defenses and energy infrastructure, severely crippling both.
As in who is the whole Western world?
Are we really going to talk about leaders and their Megalomania without mentioning President 10%?
get Ukraine *ALL* the weapons they need to win...
——-
Those weapons are hard to use without any Ukies to man them. The Ukies are now on their 8th mobilization, yes 8th. Many similarities to Nazi Germany’s Hitler Youth and Volksturm.
Pressing teenagers, old men and woman into service is not “ winning”.
“Megalomania induced by cancer drugs….”
I am sure the guy has a whole range of psych issues. But I’ve never heard of cancer drugs doing much beyond making you feel like crap.
Nice, posting another complete lie. Picture is from 2020 WEF, BEFORE Ukraine was invaded. Idiot
Much of the “Western world” is corrupted and cannot be used as a golden mean.
Your Putin had the shakes and the coughs in his video today. Stronk as bull!
Then why didn’t She and Moti (the leaders of the two largest countries in the world), along with 100 plus other countries, join the SANCTIONS on Russia? Answer, because they’re not buying the Western line that the military operation was ‘unprovoked’.
——————
That’s quite a conclusion. India did not join on sanctions because they are too dependent on Russia for their energy. If they shut off Russian oil, their people would starve.
China has always been a quasi-ally of Russia. Xi not joining in is no surprise. But, you know Xi is watching the Russian military and eyeing Eastern Russia at the same time. I would suggest that Siberia is at risk for invasion as much as Taiwan.
Western intelligence analysis claims
Is as believable as anything from the MSM.
80% of everything is fake or a lie.
After it was bitten off and being chewed up for stupid games by the WEMPIRE.
Another cisgender millennial woman of color who has been diagnosed with a generalized anxiety disorder?
Maybe not, but when it comes to intelligence agencies it's hard to separate what they've actually found out from what they're saying to make us think the way they want us to think.
If the CIA and the other agencies really are doing their job, their analysis can't be that simple.
