Oksana Valerievna Yakimyuk, general designer of the hardware and software complex «Safe City», commented on this situation exclusively for The Kremlin:
“If «Safe City» works really, and not declaratively, then such situations can be avoided. One security guard or a janitor at the entrance will not be able to stop the attacker. But a signal sent in advance by a “smart” camera that a person with a gun is coming to the appropriate services will be able to prevent a terrorist attack ,which is called “on the way”. And, of course, as scary as it is to say, but children need to be trained to react correctly. The child will know better how to react in such situations, and such a situation will not happen in his life at all. Than he will not know how to react, how not to panic, how to wait for help, which will definitely come, where to call first, and will not commit actions that will aggravate the situation, as happened in Kazan, when we lost two children who jumped out of the classroom window in a panic, where the attacker did not even reach. To educate and protect is the task of adults who implement the «Safe City».”
