  Xinhuanet Moscow, August 4 (Reporter Liu Yang) Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said on the 4th that the threat of terrorism still exists and is very serious in Russia, and the federal government will take measures to resolutely crack down on terrorist forces.


  Putin made this statement at the meeting of the presidium of the Russian Federation government held on the same day. Russian news agency quoted Putin as saying that Russia has done a lot of work to build a complete multi-level anti-terrorism system and dealt a heavy blow to terrorist organizations, but it should continue to crack down on terrorist forces in the future and resolutely stop all its actions.


  Putin said that the security issue has always been a matter of great concern to the Russian federal government. Russia will review the new special anti-terrorism plan and increase its investment in the field of counter-terrorism. It plans to invest tens of billions of rubles in the new special anti-terrorism plan. Putin also suggested that the meeting of the presidium of the federal government discuss the issue of signing international agreements in the field of counter-terrorism.


  In recent years, the government of the Russian Federation has intensified its crackdown on illegal armed forces in the North Caucasus, and the terrorist activities in Russia have obviously decreased, and the situation in Chechnya and other places has also improved. However, in recent days, terrorist activities against police and civilians in the North Caucasus have been on the rise again, attracting Russian high-level attention.
