Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, against the backdrop of a publication about his poor health, which caused a resonance in the country, shared a video in which he plays basketball on his Telegram channel, RIA Novosti reports.

Earlier, Foreign Policy magazine published a column claiming that in some recent videos of Erdogan, he does not look his best.

So, in one video he needs the help of his wife when going up the stairs. In another, he allegedly experiences difficulties when he goes to the mausoleum of Ataturk. Finally, in the third video, Erdogan slurred the words.

In the video posted by the Turkish leader, he plays basketball in sports uniform number 15 with the inscription "R. Tayyip Erdogan" with his peers. At the same time, the Turkish President acts as the team captain and encourages his partners.
