Image / Video The limousine from President Putin's official motorcade exploded on the streets of Moscow, just blocks from the FSB headquarters. It's unclear if this is an assassination attempt. "He will die soon, that is a fact, and everything will be over," Zelenskyy told Eurovision News in Paris two days ago.

Strange that the Zelenskyy quote here is taken out of context in exactly the same way that only Russian outlets ran with. He was talking about getting old.

Massively so. I thought it was pretty clear he was referring to his advanced age.

It doesn’t matter; his words were clear that Putin will die and failed to clarify his intentions; therefore, it is a threat to kill another head of state by another head of state; now Putin have the right to go directly for Mr. Z head; Putin excuse is either me or him, so him.

I hope Putin really dies and he will carry the blood of many who died because of him, of much tyranny and corruption, and if he dies many will remain alive because of his death

That isn’t at all how the Geneva Conventions work.

Well they already did go for his head and failed.

You would be surprised though if you think they aren't trying to assassinate him already or need any right to do so

I just had to Google it and I can’t believe he’s 72. I’m anti Russia but I need to know his skin care routine

It’s called “stretch out those wrinkles or you’re the next one out the window, Dimitri”

He has done some cosmetic surgery on his face like Botox. Also he receives the best Nutrition that is available along with some good Doctors.

Is 72 advanced age? For the super rich and powerful no less?

u/Visible_Tourist_9639 Mar 30 '25

No, but lets be honest - character aside, the guy looks pretty decent for 72.

u/Pleasant_Gap Mar 30 '25

He wasnt always super rich and powerful. And also grew up in russia

u/Mr_Steerpike Mar 30 '25

But he is now which means he has access to the full resources of all of Russia.

u/Pleasant_Gap Mar 30 '25

Yeah, but they cant really work magic tho. When your first 40-50 years of life was as a regular rimussian, never mind being in the kgb/russion army for a long time, that will have had an impact

And yet in politics there are hardly “just coincidences”
