The 'sudden' death of Putin's close ally

International Desk: Vladimir Sangorkin, an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, has died. He was on a business trip at the time of his death. US media Newsweek reported that the editor-in-chief of the Russian state newspaper Pravda, Vladimir Sangorkin, was a close ally of Putin. He had a stroke while on a business trip. In a statement on messaging app Telegram, Pravda said Sangorkin died while in the primary region on a business trip. His colleague Leonid Zakharov was also with him. Doctors said that he had a stroke. But this is an initial guess. Meanwhile, in a separate statement, the Kremlin said that Sangorkin's death is a great loss for Russian journalism. He has always set an example of loyalty to his profession, professional ethics. Canada-based media Global News reports that Sangorkin has been the editor-in-chief of Pravda since 1997. The European Commission imposed a ban on the Ukraine war last February. Not long before this, Ivan Pechorin, a prominent Russian businessman, died mysteriously. He was the top manager of the Corporation for the Development of the Far East and Arctic. It was the ninth death among Russian businessmen in the year. Meanwhile, another report recently informed that Russian President Vladimir Putin survived the assassination attempt.
