MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Political opposition activist Alexei Navalny poses no political threat to Russian President Vladimir Putin because of the leader’s level of trust and ratings, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday.

“You know, as a whole, the president most likely with such a level of trust and popularity, with his electorate rating would not consider other politicians as a threat,” Peskov told journalists when asked if Putin believes Navalny to be a possible political threat.

Alexei Navalny, a Russian blogger and prominent political activist, heads the Party of Progress. In 2013 he finished second in the mayoral election in Moscow, with 27 percent of the vote.
