The reporters noticed “something like a big bruise on his left cheekbone. According to them, it was a very noticeable swelling. Moreover, the journalists have noticed “poorly disguised make-up,” the Prime Minister had never used before.

Ukrainian journalists asked their Russian counterparts, whether all is well with Putin’s health. However, they assured that there is nothing suspicious to Premier’s mood and appearance, and they do not see the bruises.
