URGENTLY! Putin DIES! I had to have emergency surgery at night

VLADIMIR Putin has cancer - as well as symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease - and had emergency surgery in February, it was claimed today.

Political analyst Valery Solovei - whose earlier claims about the Russian strongman’s failing health were denied - also said Putin plans to announce his Kremlin exit early in the New Year.Solovei has doubled down on Parkinson’s rumours he sparked earlier this month by revealing he has been told the president has been treated for cancer.

He claims to have Kremlin sources “at the epicentre of decision making".

Solovei said of 68-year-old Putin's twin health traumas: “One is of psycho-neurological nature, the other is a cancer problem.

“If anyone is interested in the exact diagnosis, I'm not a doctor, and I have no ethical right to reveal these problems.

”The second diagnosis is a lot, lot more dangerous than the first named diagnosis as Parkinson’s does not threaten physical state, but just limits public appearances.

“But there is a fatal diagnosis.

“Based on this information people will be able to make a conclusion about his life horizon, which wouldn’t even require specialist medical education.”

Solovei claims Putin underwent surgery in February and another Russian source went on to claim it was an abdominal cancer operation.

Few gaps in the president’s schedule are apparent at the time but it is claimed his first appearance after the surgery was to lay flowers in St Petersburg memorial site on February 19.

Solovei is a political scientist and historian and the former head of the Public Relations Department Moscow State Institute of International Relations, one of the most prestigious universities in Russia.

He left the post last year for what he said were "political reasons".

In September, he was detained with dozens of others following a March in Moscow over the arrest of Sergei Furgal, a member of an opposition party and then-governor of the Khabarovsk Krai region
