In a surprising move, Russian President Vladimir Putin has reportedly been transporting gold by submarine to Bahrain. This move has raised eyebrows among political analysts, who believe it is a sign of the president’s fear that he may lose the upcoming election.
The news of Putin’s gold transport was first reported by an anonymous source close to the Kremlin. The source claims that Putin personally oversaw the transport of gold from Russia to Bahrain via submarine. The amount of gold transported is unknown, however it is believed to be significant given its transportation method.
Political analysts are interpreting this move as a sign that Putin fears his re-election may not be guaranteed and is taking steps to protect his wealth in case he loses power. Such speculation has been further fuelled by recent polls which show Putin’s approval rating slipping significantly over recent months.
