Putin's closest aide sends chilling assassination warning to Trump

One of Vladimir Putin’s closest aides has sent a chilling assassination warning to Donald Trump as the US and Russia work together to decide the fate of Ukraine - which he said will “cease to exist” this year. Known as “Putin’s brain”, ex-security council chief Nikolai Patrushev said Trump could face assassination attempts before and after his inauguration, and that US intelligence agencies must prioritise the 78-year-old's safety as he warned four US presidents had already been murdered while in office.
Patrushev, 73, added that Britain and other European countries must be excluded as the Trump administration and Russia decide Ukraine’s fate. The former head of the sinister FSB security service, a key architect of the war, said: “Clearly not all US elites share Trump’s positions. His views differ much from the plans nurtured by representatives of the Democratic Party, separate owners of industrial giants, and transnational corporations.
"This is why it is critically important to ensure the security of Trump and his entourage before the inauguration of the head of state, as well as during his tenure as president.” On the war in Ukraine, he said: “If we are talking about definite prospects of the further development of events, taking into account the Trump factor, we regard his statements with respect.
“I propose that talks on Ukraine should be held between Russia and the USA, without the involvement of other Western nations.” He said: “There is nothing to discuss with any London or Brussels. The EU leadership, for example, has long since lost any authority to negotiate on behalf of many of its members.”.
