He’s denied it himself, so…..

probably - but who cares?

[ichkeria]

You know what they say about Kremlin denials :-)
It will be interesting to see how many of the others acknowledge him.
He went off in a huff after the last UN meeting.

Meanwhile, Zelensky is in Kherson.

[ichkeria]

Seems like he was indeed hospitalised for whatever reason, but is now out.

[Zacs-Master]

Where did you get that from, Ich?

[ichkeria]

The governor of Bali (not personally you understand); he also commented that Lavrov was "in excellent health"

All a bit odd

[Zacs-Master]

The truth and Russian politics always we’re strangers

He should be careful going to a hospital, he might fall out of a sixth floor window.

We can only hope it's nothing trivial.

From the first report, the actual situation is murky. "An Indonesian official told AFP said Lavrov had been taken to hospital two days in a row after arriving..." "...he came to the hospital yesterday after he arrived in Bali, only to get his health checked", "...he came again to the hospital only for another health check...".

What kind of nonsense is that? Who visits a hospital twice in a row just to get their health checked upon arrival in a foreign country?? This makes the other reports make even less sense!!

[youngmafbog]

Anyone who has taken a sip from a dodgy cup of tea maybe?

Those close to Putin do seem to have a lot of 'health' issues especially showing a propensity to fall out of windows.

Interesting - a dose of Novichokovic administered through an umbrella tip by a Russian tennis look-alike...? Bet there's a Bali-hoo going on....

[davebro]

I think it was polonium in the tea & ricin on the umbrella tip.

I'll get me coat.

Good things being done by the armed forces of Ukraine this evening :-)

Lavrov would be advised to stay in Bali.

[DTCwordfan]

As long as there are a few bank accounts set up in Sergey Lavrov's name in Jakarta. At the moment, 1 Russian Ruble equates to 250 ndonesian Rupiah which then equates to 1.6 Biden's funny money or 1.4 pence of King Charles' currency.

He is a great advert for the "decadent" west: interviewed at his hotel in casual attire: Jean-Michel Basquiat (US artist) t shirt, Apple watch, iPhone (allowing him to ring his Columbia University educated daughter perhaps)

[DTCwordfan]

The hotel being the Grand Hyatt, Denpasar, I believe from seeing the background in his photos......price, with a very low exhange rate, northwards of £500 a night and if one of their villas more like a grand....

Kyiv getting hit just now - possibly to coincide with the G19.
Two residential buildings in Pechersk area hit, and by the sound of it possibly also the power grid
