UNIAN, screenshotsFrom public appearances of the Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin, it does not look like he has health problems. This is the opinion expressed by the well-known Ukrainian doctor, pediatrician Yevhen Komarovskyi, on the air of "News Factory".
"For a man his age, he is quite active: he jumps, runs, can talk for a long time, and he does not get winded. I do not see any obvious physical diseases from his appearance that could turn him into a “black swan.” But without a doubt, the mental state of this person raises very serious concerns, and this has been the case for quite a long time," Komarovskyi said.
He compared Putin to U.S. President Donald Trump. The doctor emphasized that Trump shows clear signs of dementia. Meanwhile, Putin's problem is that he is deprived of any objective information.
"That is, Trump is struggling with information. He likes these journalists, but not those. He watches, writes on social networks, speaks publicly, and believes that his opinion is the most important. But he is in an information flow, while Putin is in red folders," Komarovskyi noted.
The expert noted that Putin truly believes that Russians are achieving success on the battlefield in Ukraine. As an example, the doctor cited the Kremlin dictator's statement that Russian forces allegedly captured Sloviansk, which Ukrainian troops refuted.
"If you do this knowingly, you are stupid, which is unlikely. And if you do it unconsciously, then you are objectively deprived of information. This is a person who for 26 years has been deprived of access and does not want to have access. He is proud that at his age he can barely use a mouse. This person does not have objective information, but makes decisions that affect a huge number of people… Therefore Putin's greatest personal enemy is the one who brings him red folders," the doctor stressed.
The doctor also reacted to rumors that Putin has doppelgängers. According to Komarovskyi, it would hardly be possible for the Kremlin to create an identical person who would be shown up close on stage and during meetings with other world leaders.
"Conversations are, of course, interesting. You want to believe in them. But from my point of view, no. I believe that one can change facial expressions and gestures, voice timbre, intonation, manners... No, I do not believe it. This is conspiracy theory. Do you see another situation? And yet does this conspiracy theory somehow affect our life, the bombardment of Kyiv bridges and the coming winter? No, we have our own agenda. Perhaps if we sat in warm and full Europe and nothing fell on us from above, I would perhaps joyfully discuss this conspiracy. But right now I am far more worried about the coming winter, to be honest," Komarovskyi explained.
Putin's Desire to Live Forever
Recall that in 2024 The Times reported that Moscow was working on creating for the Kremlin dictator an "elixir of eternal life." The publication noted that Putin is essentially obsessed with the idea of eternal life.
Already in 2025 year, the head of Russia's Ministry of Health, Mikhail Murashko, said that Russia is making certain progress in extending life expectancy. At the same time, he stressed that Moscow has not yet found a universal remedy that prolongs youth.
