Vladimir Putin is 'alive' but 'neutralised' as shadowy security chiefs stage a stealthy coup in Moscow, it was claimed last night.
Former FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev was behind the plot, claimed chairman of the pro-Kremlin national Islamic Committee, Geydar Dzhemal.
Snip...
'I think that Putin is neutralised at the moment, but of course, he is alive,' said Dzhemal, seen as a Kremlin loyalist. 'He is under the control of the power-wielding agencies, who have, in my opinion, organised a coup d'etat.'

'My information is that Patrushev met Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov in Pyatigorsk on 11 March and tempted him over to his side.'
With feverish speculation in Moscow over Putin's health and whereabouts, and claims of a bitter power struggle in his entourage which could even trigger an attempted coup, the head of Chechnya spoke emotionally of people 'trying to harm the president of Russia - and Russia itself'. And he claimed that forces were scheming 'to break us apart', referring to him and his guarantor Putin.
snip...
The voices of prime minister Dmitry Medvedev, Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, Chief of the Kremlin staff Sergei Ivanov - and Putin's intelligence tsars - have remained silent. Kadyrov has enjoyed extraordinary power and largesse under Putin as a reward for keeping an iron grip on the rebellious oil-rich Chechen region, scene of two bloody wars since the collapse of the USSR. As a result he is hated by many senior Putin loyalists. But Kadyrov's enemies claimed yesterday that the 38 year old bearded regional potentate is in 'panic' because he can no longer contact his mentor. 'He is phoning anyone he can in an attempt to arrange a talk with Putin - but he fails,' alleged a website linked to Islamic hardliners seeking to overthrow Kadyrov.

I guess we’ll see what the stock market does tomorrow.
Surprising that Putin let Pimakov live this long, maybe he has many old and powerful connections to take out.
If putin is gone then who holds the nesting dolls with the launch codes in them??????
That Ivan the terrible crown he probably already have in his personal collection
Oligarch mob want someone they can better control than Putin, Putin is too much of a cowboy. Next leader will be more of a puppet.
That what I explain to other Freepers when Russia leaders died they play classical music on State tv
Also President Reagan once said Communists were Romanovs without Glamour LOL!
Or Putin might be visiting Greece and maybe Italy.
OMG Fabouloussss LOL!
That look like Terence Stamp from Pricilla Queen of the desert Good movie
When I saw Jen Psaki the other day at a presser she was nervous, not smartass and condescending like she usually is.
She wasn’t looking directly into the eyes of reporters, kept looking down.
Poroshenko is in more trouble than Putin???
LOL.
Apparently not.
I didn’t claim to know what the CIA knows, did I? I have no doubt that the CIA of 40 or even 30 years ago knew a whole lot more than the train wreck Rube Goldberg “intelligence community” we have now, huh?
Don’t know where he could go except Iran, Kenya, or Indonesia.
It’s almost Monday AM there now. Any new pics of the Kremlin, not counting the fire?
bttt
sagar, quit sending me foul, nasty, private messages.
If post 87 upsets you so much, then just attack me on this thread, not in freepmails.
WTH. When did I send you “nasty private messages”?
It wasn't you, it was someone else with a five letter "S" name similar to yours, I assumed that it was you to post 87 which is fresh and from today, but now I realize it is freepmail from some guy from an older thread who evidently has some personal grudge.
All “s” look alike to you. An alphabetist! ;)
