“The most pressing issues at the moment are the number of incidents at the border, because the Russians are, of course, bombarding the border crossing points on the Ukrainian side in order to sever the supply lines, and this obviously also endangers our citizens and Border Police officers,” the Prime Minister told the TV channel Cinema1.
In this context, the authorities have already taken several measures to enhance security at border crossing points.
“Here are some practical measures we have taken: we have moved personnel onto our territory at those points where checks were being carried out on the Ukrainian side, as there were such joint checkpoints. Secondly, we have built shelters at the border crossings; in some cases they are more sophisticated, in others more makeshift, but such shelters have been built and are being reinforced. “We will ensure that we have shelters at all border crossings,” said Vasile Tofan.
The Prime Minister pointed out that the authorities had also carried out an inventory of all existing shelters in the country. Some of these are operational, whilst others require cleaning and refurbishment.
“A great deal is certainly being done, including by the centre headed by Mr Diaconu, the National Crisis Management Centre. An inventory of all shelters has been carried out; we know which shelters we have – some are operational, others are not. Work is underway to clean them up,” said the Prime Minister.
