 In Ukraine, for three years and a half, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the National Police units prevented more than 300 terrorist attacks, some of which were planned in places of mass gathering, advisor to the interior minister of Ukraine Zorian Shkiriak has said.

"In just three years and a half, the SBU and the relevant units of the National Police of Ukraine warned and prevented more than 300 terrorist attacks, some of which were planned in places of mass gathering. As for the overall assessment, I would like to say that, despite the welfare of the civilized world and Europe, as we see, neither British, nor Belgian, nor French special services warned or defended people against the terrorist attacks in Paris, Nice, Brussels, Barcelona and I would not be so categorical. We should give people the understanding that, unfortunately, today the world has changed and our security is our common responsibility," he said on the air on 112.Ukraine TV channel on Thursday evening.
