Putin’s “Poop Suitcase” Unusual Security Measures at Alaska Summit with Trump Make Waves Around the World

According to reports, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s security brought a “poop suitcase” to the Alaska summit with Donald Trump to keep other countries from finding out more about his health. This has led to more concern about the 72-year-old leader’s condition.

Moscow, August 18— It sounds like something out of a story, but Russian President Vladimir Putin’s security staff apparently brought a special “poop suitcase” to the recent Alaska summit with US President Donald Trump. The Express US says that the suitcase was used to collect the Russian leader’s poop as a way to keep vital health information from getting into the hands of people from other countries.

The strange but planned security measure, said to come from Russia’s Federal Protection Service (FPS), has been in place for years. French reporters Regis Gente and Mikhail Rubin wrote in Paris Match that sources said that after every trip abroad, Putin’s trash is carefully gathered, preserved in sealed bags, and brought back to Russia in special briefcases.

Reports say that the strange measure goes back to 2017, when Putin went to France. In Vienna, similar things happened, and the president is said to have used a portable toilet to make sure there was no evidence left behind. Farida Rustamova, a Russian journalist, said that the secret ritual has been a part of Putin’s routine since he became president in 1999.

Some people think this is an excessive move for personal safety, but the news has once again raised questions about Putin’s health. After making public appearances that hinted at serious health problems, the 72-year-old Russian leader has been the focus of several rumors. People have seen him twitch during a meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in 2023, jerk his legs during a press conference in Astana last year, and even heard dubious tales from 2022 that the Kremlin strenuously rejected.

Dr. Bob Berookhim and other medical professionals have said in the past that these kinds of motions could be signs of neurological disorders like Parkinson’s disease. The Kremlin has never officially confirmed anything, though. They have always said that rumors about health are just Western propaganda.

This new “poop suitcase” story not only shows how far Russia is ready to go to protect its leader, but it also adds fuel to the fire of continuing disputes about Putin’s health, secrecy, and how people perceive politics around the world.

The myth of Putin’s “poop suitcase” has given a unique twist to geopolitics, whether it’s for security reasons or out of paranoia. It mixes secrecy, speculation, and the peculiar realities of being a world leader.
