At the same time, he has emphasized that he reads the comments of some users "and, to put it mildly, I am surprised at their attitude towards our citizens who have come to their home, I am surprised at the negativity that is addressed to them."

He urged everyone not to panic, to be more tolerant and restrained towards each other.
“Together we will overcome all problems, solve all issues, the main thing is to be together, support each other, and, once again, do not panic, but take care of ourselves and our relatives. Thank you all for your understanding and support!”, The President wrote.
