In recent weeks, Putin has rarely left his official residence, sparking speculation that illness or injury had laid him low. On Thursday, the respected newspaper Vedomosti cited unnamed Kremlin-connected sources saying Putin's September flight in a motorized hang-glider accompany migrating cranes had aggravated an old back injury. But his spokesman Dmitry Peskov, while acknowledging Putin had a strained back, told the state news agency RIA Novosti that the highly publicized flight had nothing to do with Putin being a homebody. Peskov was quoted as saying Putin was making only infrequent trips to the Kremlin because he didn't want his motorcade to disrupt Moscow's notoriously bad traffic.
