Russia’s Vladimir Putin ‘very ill’ with blood cancer: secret recording of Russian energy tycoon
New York Post ^ | 05/14/2022 | Eileen AJ Connelly

Posted on 05/14/2022 10:15:20 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Russian President Vladimir Putin is “very ill with blood cancer,” an oligarch close to the Kremlin said in a secret recording obtained by New Lines Magazine.

The type of cancer was unspecified, New Lines reported in a story discussing myriad rumors about Putin’s health.

“The recording represents rare testimony by someone with proven ties to the Russian government that its fanatical dictator may well be seriously unwell,” the magazine stated of the comments made during a mid-March discussion with someone described as a “Western venture capitalist.”

“He absolutely ruined Russia’s economy, Ukraine’s economy and many other economies — ruined [them] absolutely,” the unnamed oligarch said of Putin on the tape. “The problem is with his head. … One crazy guy can turn the world upside down.”

The man is an energy tycoon who is currently outside of Russia with a net worth that puts him on the list of the 200 richest Russian businessmen. He can be heard on the tape vehemently criticizing the invasion of Ukraine and questioning the purpose of more than 15,000 Russian soliders’ deaths.

And he says “we all hope” Putin dies from his cancer or possibly from some intervention such as a coup, to spare Russia from further misfortune.

The oligarch “had no idea he was being recorded,” on the 11-minute tape, New Lines said, adding that it identified the man by his voice but withheld his name “because of the high probability disclosing it would lead to state retaliation,” noting Russia’s law that imposes 15 years in prison for spreading “fake news.”

“The oligarch “had no idea he was being recorded”

Yeah sure like I’m going to be that from an obvious propaganda piece. And so what if it were true, any change in policy would be unlikely with a Putin successor anyway.

Yes, I have seen many.

I wonder why ?

Are we supposed to think he is weak, or that he has nothing to lose and will nuke everyone ?

I dont expect either. I am waiting for him to take a page from Kim Nork and do some missile tests though

Since the war began, Putin has allegedly had thyroid cancer, stomach cancer, blood cancer, Parkinson's and dementia. Yet, he's still giving speeches, holding meetings and signing documents!

Do you believe in miracles?!

I remember when the media assured us that Kim was dead, that his sister was running North Korea, and there was a power struggle in the background to oust her.

Turned out, Kim was alive.

Should have spent money on cancer research instead of throwing so much away on his incompetent military, that is embarrassing him in his last days.

First time I've seen it, except for the other 579 times over the last few weeks.

Hyman Roth has been dying from the same heart attack for the last twenty years.

There are three primary types of blood cancer:

Leukemia is cancer of white blood cells or cells that become white blood cells. Leukemia prevents white blood cells from fighting infections in your body. Leukemia can be either acute (fast-growing) or chronic (slower-growing), and affect the lymphocytes (lymphocytic leukemia) or other immune cells (myeloid leukemia). It’s the most common blood cancer for children under the age of 15.

Lymphoma is cancer of the lymphatic system (an important part of the immune system), particularly lymph nodes (small bean-shaped structures of the lymphatic system that filter out harmful substances). It affects a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes. The type doctors know the most about is called Hodgkin’s lymphoma (or Hodgkin’s disease). (All others are called non-Hodgkin lymphoma.) It’s the most common form of blood cancer in adults, accounting for over half of all diagnosed blood cancer cases.

Myeloma is cancer of the plasma cells, which are lymphocytes that make antibodies to protect against infections. Myeloma affects your body’s immune system, leaving it susceptible to infection.

If true, based on his back problems it’s most likely to be Multiple Myeloma.

I take all of these reports with a grain of salt. But, just the same I’ve seen those May Day celebration photos and he looks horribly swollen in his face and hands. There may be some truth to the reports. How much is anybody’s guess.

People have been claiming Putin has spinal cord cancer since 2012 and pancreatic cancer since 2014. Guess you can add those to the list.

The catch with the parent story, Is Putin Sick – Or Are We Meant to Think He Is? by Michael Weiss, is that it is based on a "trust me". This claim has been run by the Daily Mail and other tabloid press so much its old news. Even if this is a 100% accurate needle in a field of haystacks, If Putin dies tomorrow his death will not end the invasion.
