[quote]Business Insider reached out to Alexander Rahr, a German political analyst who was Putin's biographer and advised the former German Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher on his efforts to help secure Khodorkovsky's release, on his thoughts on what's going on behind the scenes.
He said that factions within the power structure have become visible, there likely to be some power change-ups, and that "fights over the number two position" — aka Medvedev — have "exploded!"
The public might never know what's actually going on behind in the Moscow power structure behind Putin's absence. In any case, the cracks in the empire are starting to show.
The following has been slightly edited for clarity and translated from the original Russian by Business Insider.
Business Insider: What exactly is going on right now with Putin?
Alexander Rahr: Putin is not dead. We can all go home now. Basta, kaputt!

If Putin is disfigured he's going to be able to cement his position as a real life James Bond villain
Theres been reports of artillery, tanks and other stuff going around the Kremlin and mayors office, and a bunch of other stuff. Rumors say, as far as I see, that it's just a parade but I can't help but think this is something more serious, involving Putin.

How do you misplace a president?
By Putin it in the wrong place.
He (Putin) actually showed up yesterday or so and said "Don't bet on it (him being gone from power)"
and also added "Life is boring without rumors and hearsay".
Goddammit.
