Putin’s video became an event: his face became a laughingstock as he listened to complaints
While the war between Russia and Ukraine has been going on since February 24, the state of Russian leader Putin’s health was frequently on the agenda. A video shared the day before was mocked as it was claimed that Putin used a trick.
In the video shared by the Kremlin, Putin is seen meeting with the Chief Military Prosecutor of the General Staff, Igor Krasnov. The difficult moments of Krasnov, who had to tell Putin about the “troubles” in the country and at the front, are reflected on camera.
In the footage, Putin’s expressionless face and the official’s hard times in front of him became the subject of ridicule.
Forced to speak by Putin, Krasnov swallows and sighs as he shares his troubles, constantly looking down to avoid eye contact with Putin. In the face of Krasnov, who shares the problems experienced one after another, Putin looks without expression or discontent.
The video, which was reposted by Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to the Ukrainian Interior Minister, became the subject of ridicule. During the meeting, Krasnov told Putin that 9,000 soldiers were recruited illegally and that some of them had serious health problems.
