Vladimir Putin says he does not believe Donald Trump is safe after assassination attempts

Russian President Vladimir Putin praised US President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday (November 28) as an experienced and intelligent politician, but said he did not believe Trump was safe after attempts on his life.

Trump was wounded in an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania in July. In a separate incident in September, a man was charged with attempted assassination after allegedly positioning himself with a rifle at one of Trump’s Florida golf courses.

Speaking to media in Kazakhstan after a summit, Putin said he had been shocked by the way the US election campaign had unfolded. He cited the absolutely uncivilised methods used to battle against Trump, up to and including an assassination attempt- and more than once.

“By the way, in my opinion, he is not safe now,” said Putin.

“Unfortunately, in the history of the United States various incidents have happened. I think he (Trump) is intelligent and I hope he’s cautious and understands this.”

He called such behaviour revolting and said in Russia not even bandits would resort to such methods.

Talking about what he described as the Biden administration’s decision to escalate the war in Ukraine by allowing Kyiv to strike Russia with Western missiles, Putin speculated that it could be a ploy to either help Trump by giving him something to roll back or a way of making his life more difficult with Russia.
