Under the leadership of Putin, the number of scientific projects funded by the state in the field of aging increased six times (from seven, approved in the period from 2016 to 2022, to 43 from 2021 to 2025).
This year, other research programs on aging problems, including a program to regulate cell renewal processes in the body for long -term maintenance of the functional activity of organs and tissues, health and active longevity, also received financing, Le Monde said.
As the media emphasized, it is headed by the endocrinologist and eldest daughter of Putin, 40-year-old Maria Vorontsova.
On October 7, Putin turned 73 years old. To live to such an age for a man in Russia is a rather rare occurrence (the average life expectancy of men is 68 years), Le Monde noted.
However, Putin's powers in the Russian Federation are expected to be long. According to the amendments to the Constitution, Putin can be elected until 2036, when he will be 83 years old.
