Dmitry Peskov again confirms RF president has no health problems

Press secretary added that those who are professionally engaged in sports regularly experience some problems

NOVO-OGAREVO, November 6 (Itar-Tass) — At present “everything is fine” with the health of Russian President Vladimir Putin, his press secretary Dmitry Peskov once again confirmed to reporters on Tuesday.

He noted that during the APEC summit in Vladivostok in early September, “it was really painful to walk” for the head of state. Peskov said that this was caused by the judo practice. “He (the president) practices judo with a sparring partner whose weight is considerably heavier,” the press secretary said. Peskov added that those who are professionally engaged in sports regularly experience similar problems.
