"They launched a campaign twice already, as if Russian tourists would pose a serious threat, and both times it turned out that this campaign was completely baseless, fake and artificial and had political goals. The situation is completely under control. All agencies are responsible in this regard and will continue to act with this responsibility. This is our position. As for threats in general, of course there are threats and we've been talking about it for months. That is why we called on all entities, including the radical opposition and relevant NGOs, to refrain from the rhetoric that was directed towards war, to refrain from provocations, however, they continued with their own rhetoric, provocative actions, which were unacceptable to us. Now that a new mobilization has been announced, we must be even more vigilant and careful so that the dangers do not escape us. The war has been going on for more than half a year, and our state agencies are providing security, of course, it will continue,"
