Former Putin aide in hospital with rare neurological disorder

Anatoly Chubais, 69, who quit his job as the Kremlin’s climate envoy shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine, was hospitalized in Italy in intensive care with rare neurological disorder. “But Chubais does not believe he was poisoned,” one person close to him said. “These are very understandable suspicions. But he doesn’t think so.” Chubais’s wife had told her he was in an “unstable condition” after his hands and legs “suddenly started to go numb.”
