Russian President Vladimir Putin while at the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO) summit in Astana, Kazakhstan spoke to reporters and made mention of US President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday.

He said that he doesn't believe Trump is safe after no less than two attempts on his life. Putin described "the absolutely uncivilized methods used to battle against Trump, up to and including an assassination attempt - and more than once."

That's when Putin emphasized, "By the way, in my opinion, he is not safe now."

"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," the Russian leader emphasized.
