$26B is the total budget of one of many Putin's national projects - "New Health Preservation Technologies"[0] which intends to raise the life expectancy of Russian citizens and support Russian biotech research and local production of medicines. Implying it is Putin's personal multi-billion quest for longevity is just disgusting. Why are you trying to spread such crude propaganda? [0] http://government.ru/rugovclassifier/926/about/ |

"Russia remains marked by some of the developed world’s harshest mortality rates. Average male life expectancy in Russia today is about 68 years, according to official statistics, compared with roughly 76 in the U.S. and over 80 across much of Western Europe. Death, unlike elections, remains difficult to manage even for the Kremlin."
Now look at the World Bank data [0]: Russian male life expectancy has risen during Putin time from 59 to 68 years.
Why would free, independent and objective Western media fail to mention that?
Male life expectancy used to be 65 in the USSR but dropped to 58 during "democratic" 90s when Russia was ruled by sick and drunk Eltsin beloved by the West.
