New York (Knewz) — Vladimir Putin’s cancer surgery will force him to hand over power in the Ukraine war “for days,” a “Kremlin insider” told the Daily Mail.
Putin will reportedly put hardline Security Council head and ex-FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev in power while he is dealing with surgery. Patrushev, 70, has played a big role in the Ukraine war thus far and convinced Putin that Kyiv is overrun by neo-Nazis, the Daily Mail reports.
A year and a half ago, General SVR reported that Putin is suffering from abdominal cancer and Parkinson’s. The Daily Mail reports that Putin has put off the surgery and it won’t happen before the Victory Day commemoration of Russia’s World War II victory in Red Square on May 9.
The surgery was originally scheduled for the second of April but has been pushed back, SVR reports.
“Putin was recommended to undergo surgery, the date of which is being discussed and agreed,” the outlet stated. “There seems to be no particular urgency, but it cannot be delayed either.”
It added: “The Russian President Vladimir Putin has oncology, and the latest problems identified during [his latest] examination are associated with this disease.”
Vladimir Putin’s cancer surgery comes at a time when there’s speculation that Russia will launch and all-out war across Ukraine.
The Kremlin has always denied Putin has medical issues as it portrays him to be in perfect health, even when he’s been mysteriously missing at times in recent years, the Daily Mail reports.

He won’t be back
Be a real shame if the surgery killed him.
Stomach cancer? And he keeps putting off surgery?
Be a real shame if the surgery killed him.
Yea couldn’t happen to a nicer guy!!!
Hasn’t this story been out for weeks?
Remember what happened the last time he did it and Putin Jr. took the war our for a spin and ended up in the hospital? Not good, Vlad.
“He won’t be back”
Let’s hope not.
Rumors were apparently true.
If this is true.
Gut cancer, he’s dead already
Be careful what you wish for. You might regret it later.
Could tell he looked very sickly from early this year. This is his last hurrah and a total failure. He’s not long for this world.
That would be a good time for the permanent transfer of power.
If he survives the surgery he probably won’t have the stomach for continued fighting.
I would prefer a public trial before they kill him.
In the old USSR, Soviet leaders who took time off might discover that they were replaced.
I wonder if someone knows how to do face transplant surgery. Then they could just take some person’s face off, stick it on another person, and we would be left thinking someone was another person whose face got grafted on to them. I know, it sounds like a cheesy sci-fi movie plot
Who knows if he has stomach cancer but if he has, I can tell you about it because I fought with it for the last three years.
The routine in first strong chemo, followed by surgical removal of the tumor and likely the whole stomach with surrounding lymph nodes. Lastly, it is chemo again to get any left over cells floating about.
He has not had strong chemo infusions as would be typical. He would not look the same if he had. I doubt he has any sort of advanced stomach cancer. Could be an early, small tumor found by accident.
Imagine you are a meglomaniac, know you’re dying, and are watching your legacy get totally destroyed in just months, and there is not a damed thing you can do about it. The mental and emotional stress from that will greatly accelerate the desease along. He’ll be dead within 6 months max.
