Or fact?

So is Denmark's secret service, which has now given the Danish daily Berlingske an insight into its findings. According to an agent of the Danish Defence Intelligence Agency (FE), Putin had just received hormone treatment for cancer at the time of the invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops, which could have influenced his judgement.

In addition, Putin had been suffering from chronic pain for a long time, which is why he would repeatedly hold on to tables and chairs to support himself during public appearances. However, according to the official, the cancer Putin has is not fatal. The official does not cite any substantiated evidence but refers to observations and remote diagnoses in his statements.

Why remote diagnoses of Putin's illness could be dangerous, we reveal to you in the video.
