Darmanen told LCI. Said on the TV channel, “We examined 180 thousand people, we did not allow 800 people (to participate in the Games – Ed.), 15 of whom are on the list of people posing a threat to national security. We Also checked 200 thousand employees of private security companies who will protect the stadiums, fan zones… 102 people (who were posing a threat to national security, were not given entry – Ed.),”
