According to him, many hours of planning and thought were invested in the site, and by various technological means.
"I urge the celebrating public to follow the instructions of the police. It is important to us that everyone who comes and enters the site, returns home safely, so the police will not compromise when encountering those who come to disrupt the proper order of the event. I believe there is a very high chance." In the plans, and in closing the gaps that still exist, we will pass the event successfully. "
