Ukrainian President Volodmyr Zelenksy has vowed that Vladimir Putin “will die soon”, as Kyiv’s forces continue to steadily capture ground in Russia.
Speaking to journalists after a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, Zelensky gave a damning verdict on the Russian leader’s health - which has long been said to be faltering.
Zelenksy said: “He (Putin) will die soon, and that's a fact, and it will come to an end.”
In November, Putin was not seen in public for two weeks, with the Kremlin accused of releasing pre-recorded meetings amid speculation of ill health.

Over the years, some have claimed that he appears overly tired, has difficulty walking and strongly gripping tables in meetings - sparking rumours of Parkinson’s disease.
He was also said to have cancer several times in 2014, 2020 and 2022, and reportedly travels with an entourage of doctors to assist him in case of a medical emergency.
Zelensky’s comments come as Kyiv’s forces have begun a new incursion into the Russian region of Belgorod.
Ukraine has been steadily gaining ground, despite the Kremlin claiming last week that Russian troops managed to ward off an attack.
Zelensky has said that his military was taking “strategic steps” to counter a potential Russian offensive from Sumy, where there has been a build-up of armed forces.
