On yesterday's Kyiv tragedy, briefly and to the point.

First of all, sincere condolences to the families of the victims.. I wish the victims a speedy recovery, and my loved ones strength and endurance to survive this difficult time.. These are certainly tragic events that leave a mark on everyone who is aware of them..

The following is the text in the original language. As a person who has observed similar attacks, I can say: such attacks, unfortunately, occur periodically and can occur practically in any country. Tse zhorstka, ale real warehouse for the daily world of security.

It is also easy to understand that the reaction of law enforcement systems in the most guilty powers is not always ahead of the attacker's actions in the minds of a rapt attack in public space. In such situations, key seconds often prevail, and this is also part of the reality in which security services face.

Now I would like to expressly acknowledge the actions of most police officers, the National Police and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In this situation, they acted professionally, and it is clear to state: the number of victims could have been much greater, as if the reaction was not prompt. The attacker was eliminated.

Several incidents and possibly questionable actions of several police officers may be the subject of urgent investigation and assessment. It is important not to transfer the diversity of certain people to the entire system.

Police officers are not an abstraction, but thousands of different people with knowledge, level of training, psychological stability and reactions. It is also incorrect to create official information about the entire National Police through outsiders. Most of them work daily in the minds of high-ranking officials, ensuring law and order and security.

І one more important moment. Whenever you are emotional, be sure to carefully assess the safe situation. Today, we will be in Kiev and start talking everyday life, such as buying an expensive phone in public places, being deprived of safe, lower-income European capitals.
