Actual problems of prevention of terrorist crimes committed on transport

Dobrovolskaya Yulia Sergeevna, Agapov Pavel Valer'evich

Since the beginning of the 2000s, terrorist acts committed on transport, which resulted in numerous human casualties, have been regularly included in the official statistics of the Russian Federation. The leadership of our country did not immediately come to understand that it is easier and cheaper to prevent terrorist attacks than to eliminate their consequences. To date, Russia has managed to form an effective system for preventing terrorist crimes related to the transport sector, and to reduce them to a minimum. However, this does not indicate the complete elimination of threats. The activities of terrorist groups are constantly being improved, therefore, in parallel with this process, work should be developed to further implement the most effective measures to prevent such socially dangerous crimes as terrorist attacks.
