Report: Vladimir Putin 'moved to bunker' as flu outbreak strikes Kremlin
MSN NEWS ^ | 12-13 | Saurabh Sharma

A major flu outbreak has reportedly hit officials in Kremlin. The outbreak has excited Putin's hypochondriac tendencies once again, the report said.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has been moved to 'bunker-type premises' due to an outbreak of flu in the Kremlin, UK daily Express reported on Wednesday.

News outlet Novaya Gazeta Europe reported that many presidential officials in the Kremlin were down with flu. The report comes just two days after Putin cancelled his annual year-end press conference for the first time in a decade.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Monday said that the Russian President will not hold the annual news conference. He, however, did not give reasons behind the move. Many believe that it was due to recent setbacks in Ukraine besides the flu that has broken in the city.

UK Defence Ministry said that it will be the first time in 10 years that Putin has not held the annual event, while the usual public phone-in also did not take place this year.

It said the press conference has become a significant fixture in Putin’s calendar of public engagement and has frequently been used as an opportunity to demonstrate the supposed integrity of the Russian President.

"Although questions are almost certainly usually vetted in advance, the cancellation is likely due to increasing concerns about the prevalence of anti-war feeling in Russia," the UK said.

The UK said that Kremlin officials are almost certainly extremely sensitive about the possibility that any event attended by Putin could be hijacked by unsanctioned discussion about the 'special military operation'.

Earlier this month, Ukraine hit two Russian military airfields

General SVR Telegram channel said that the recent strike on military airfields deep in Russia has spooked Putin, who may spend the New Year in a bunker east of the Ural Mountains.

I was pointing out the absurdity of daily reports here on FR of the different ways that Putin is supposedly going to die.

He may be sick but over the last few months here on FR articles have been posted that he was suffering from multiple diseases and cancers that it’s wonder he’s even still walking.

“What difference does it make...”

Orders can come from the bunker and no one will know if they are from Putin or not.

I haven’t kept up with Putin but 6 months ago I thought he was on his deathbed.

So, Putin dies, then the order comes down to launch a tactical nuke, considering how Russia is getting routed on the battlefield, but no one cares if Putin actually gave the order.

The West is running fantasy stories on Putin and not giving Russia the respect it has earned militarliary. Russia is dangerous and Communist, and Putin is evil. But burying your head in the sand amd going lalala isn’t going to make Putin and his Neo Soviets go away. In fact the slow drip drip drip and sissy approach in Ukraine is only embolding him while he drains NATO of hardware on the cheap.

You’re not a hypochondriac if you know you have a compromised immune system.

celebrating the fall of Bakhmut with a cup of Stoli and a meal of cornichons, pickled tomatoes, bread with butter and caviar, boiled potatoes with butter and dill, pickled cabbage, fresh herring with onion, and borscht with sour cream.

Its a cup of vodka, and like the fall of Bakhmut, the food is imaginary as well.

Hey ya don’t mess with the Kremlin Flu.
Back in the old “Soviet Union” days it was a death sentence. Prominent Politburo members go missing, Tass claimed they had flu, then they were dead.
Nasty, deadly stuff.

No, it’s not. That photo was taken some time ago, at least as late as June 27, 2022; because it was included in an EXPRESS article by Ebun Hargrave of that date.

Keep on lying, Sparky. Your propaganda masters are disappointed in your amateurish efforts.

You’re a cheap liar, kid. Whatever your handlers are paying you, they are getting screwed.
