MOSCOW
-- Russian and Ukrainian security services have foiled a plan to
assassinate Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Russia's state
television reported Monday.
Pro-government Channel One said that
the suspects were plotting to kill Putin in Moscow immediately after the
March 4 presidential election, in which he is all but certain to
reclaim the presidency.
The report, which did not quote any named security officials, said
Ukrainian special services had detained two people in the Ukrainian
Black Sea port of Odessa after an explosion at a rented apartment in
which one person was killed.
Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed the report to the ITAR-Tass news agency, but refused to make any further comment.
