The former head of British intelligence predicted that Putin will be out of power by next year and in a medical facility for long-term illness.
The head of the UK's Secret Intelligence Service from 1999 to 2004 was Sir Richard Dearlove. He made predictions about Putin during an episode of One Decision, which he co-hosted.
I will stick my neck out. I think he will be gone by the year 2023. He said that the sanatorium would be a way to move Putin out of power without a coup.
Recent reports suggest that Putin is ill and could soon lose his power.

Last week, an expert on Russian security said that top Kremlin security officials believe the war in Ukraine is lost and that Putin is losing his grip on power.
Budanov told Sky News that Putin was sick and in a bad psychological and physical condition.
Steele, who led MI6's Russia desk for years, said that sources told him that Putin was seriously ill and that he frequently left meetings for medical treatment.
The state of Putin's health is not known, though he is rumored to have ailments like dementia, Parkinson&s disease, and blood cancer.
According to Dearlove, there is no plan to replace Putin in Russian leadership, but the most likely person to take his place is the secretary of the Security Council of Russia.
