[NYP] The Kremlin quietly tried to delete footage of Russian President Vladimir Putin having a coughing fit and struggling to breathe mid-speech — as rumors of his health woes ramp up.
Putin, 73, was caught on camera repeatedly spluttering and trying to clear his throat as he was filming a pre-recorded address to mark International Women’s Day over the weekend.
In the unedited clip, Putin could be seen pausing mid-sentence and repeatedly coughing as he gestured to someone out of frame.
"You know, let me say that again, because... my throat’s a bit scratchy. Yes, a bit scratchy. I almost started coughing. I’ve been talking a lot today," the dictator said, according to the Moscow Times. Try the sushi?
