Ruslana Panukhnik, program director and director of the KyivPride NGO, announced this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Like last year, about six thousand law enforcement officials will be involved to ensure that this event takes place peacefully. The organizers also trained about 50 security volunteers who will organize the column and ensure that there are no provocations in the middle of the column itself,” Panukhnik said.
