Kremlin says no change of plan for Putin's Iran visit

TEHRAN (Reuters) - The Kremlin has no information that Russian President Vladimir Putin will change his plans to visit Tehran later today, spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday, after a report of a plot to assassinate Putin in Iran.

"According to the schedule, the president is arriving tonight," Peskov told reporters in Tehran. "We have no information that he is changing his plans."

Russia's Interfax news agency, citing an unnamed source in Russia's special services, reported on Sunday that suicide bombers were preparing to kill or capture Putin on a visit to Tehran this week.
