This was reported by the press service of the Kharkov Regional State Administration with reference to the Chairman of the Regional State Administration Igor Baluta.
“We came here to see how our border was strengthened in an engineering sense and how the local checkpoint was refurbished. You see a ditch dug right on the border. It is four meters high, although according to the standards it should be two meters high. We made it wider,” said Baluta, who, together with the head of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine in the Kharkov region, Anatoly Dmitriev and the head of the Kharkov border detachment, Alexander Kruk, inspected the local checkpoint “Strelechye”.
Baluta emphasized that all local checkpoints in the Kharkov region will be refurbished in this way.
In turn, Alexander Kruk noted that the situation on the border, although tense, is controlled. “There is a certain accumulation of armed forces on the Russian side. Today the border is heavily guarded. Particular attention is now being paid to engineering measures directly on the state border line. We are carrying out some work to strengthen and strengthen checkpoints with the aim of adequate actions, up to the introduction of all-round defense,” said the head of the border detachment.
According to him, control and security measures are being seriously strengthened at the border, which are carried out in cooperation with representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Security Service of Ukraine.
