Moscow sources close to Mr Putin have claimed the 68-year-old leader has begun developing symptoms of Parkinson’s, which affects the brain and can cause shaking and stiffness. Observers noted that Mr Putin is beginning to show signs of weakness in his hands, struggling to hold pens, as well as constantly twitching his leg. Analysts informed of the President’s health also claimed Alina Kabaeva, aged 37 and former lover of Mr Putin, has begged him to step down. Mr Putin has served more than 20 years as Russian president over two terms, and recently won a referendum on changing the term limits for leaders of the country.
