President of the Russian Federation V. Putin

To ensure security and order at the Confederations Cup, unprecedented measures were taken both at the legislative level (amending laws) and in the field of security: stadiums were equipped with surveillance cameras that allow each spectator to be identified and thus establish personal responsibility in the event of offenses. On the arenas themselves, 1,300 specially selected and trained stewards worked on match days. In addition, security was provided by all the responsible bodies that were part of the interdepartmental operational headquarters for security: the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Prosecutor General's Office, the Investigative Committee, the Foreign Intelligence Service, the Russian Guard, the FSO.

As a result, incidents of disorderly conduct, as well as incidents of discrimination or racism, were kept to a minimum at the tournament, which was of particular concern to FIFA and foreign fans.

Together with employees of Russian law enforcement agencies, representatives of the Chilean and German police worked at the Confederations Cup. Alejandro Montero was responsible for helping his compatriots from South America.

"The Federal Security Service has done its work on highest level. She sent us an invitation to cooperate. We helped Chilean citizens at the consulate if they had problems due to loss of passports, detention. The Chileans were the largest group of fans in the tournament, but everything went on as usual. I hope we will be invited to the World Cup in a year, ”said Montero.

During the days of the Confederations Cup in four Russian cities, a special transport support system was organized, aimed at the timely and comfortable movement of spectators, volunteers and FIFA employees.

Free travel to the cities of the tournament by rail was organized for fans and journalists. 262 trains, 12 of which were double deckers, carried a total of 161,616 passengers. The transport system, both between the cities where the Confederations Cup matches were held, and in the cities themselves, coped with the passenger flow, and the organization of free transport was highly appreciated by journalists and fans from different countries peace.

“I really liked this free train - it's a great idea for the Confederations Cup. At the World Cup, this is worth repeating, ”said the Chilean Diaz Suazo immediately after riding one of the free trains.

“We got a lot of free bonuses thanks to our tickets. For example, this train. It was clean, they gave us towels, it was amazing. I was traveling in the same compartment with three Russian guys, we had a small party. It was great,” added Lopez Moraga from Chile.

Each of the guests of the tournament interviewed by RT showed his fan ID. This is a unique Russian development, the use of which made it possible to exclude persons with a criminal past, blacklisted fans, and other potentially dangerous visitors from appearing in the stands. In addition, this document gave foreign citizens the right to visa-free entry to Russia, and everyone who bought tickets for matches - the right to free travel on public transport between cities and within cities. The FAN ID worked great and received positive feedback at all levels.

The work of volunteers at the championship was also highly appreciated. Colin Smith, Head of the FIFA Department for Competitions and Events, noted that the fact that the Confederations Cup was held so successfully and at such a high level is the great merit of the volunteers who met the guests, worked at events, helped the press, fans and even players. During the tournament, volunteers, in addition to stadiums, worked at airports, railway stations, tourist sites, city centers for unaccredited press - wherever fans and journalists might need help.

“This Confederations Cup was the first time I volunteered. In 2014, I visited the World Cup in Brazil, saw how they work, and decided to sign up next time. I make sure that people properly sort the rubbish in the arenas. In Russia, it is customary to dump everything in one tank, although it is more beneficial for the environment to distribute waste to different places so that they can then be recycled. I often see surprised looks when I tell this, but then people get imbued with this problem and properly throw out the trash themselves without prompting,” shared her impressions Tysen Makkena, who came to St. Petersburg as a volunteer.

“The guys are great: smiling, they work well. Now I'm thinking of signing up for next year. The support of volunteers is very important: they help tourists and cheer them up with their youth, cheerful attitude, beautiful clothes. They told us where to go to the match between Portugal and Mexico, and helped us take pictures,” Anna Churakova from Komi appreciated the work of the volunteers.

At the Confederations Cup, comfortable conditions were created for the work of the media. Accredited journalists had the right to visit all stadiums of the tournament and use their media infrastructure. In total, more than 3,000 journalists applied for accreditation at the tournament.

For the unaccredited press, for the first time in the history of the Confederations Cup, city press centers were organized, in which conditions were created for the work of journalists. They accredited about a thousand reporters from China, Japan, Great Britain, France, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, Mexico, the USA, Israel, Kuwait, Syria and other countries.

“All such press centers are equipped with the latest technology, set up to ensure that journalists find it interesting and comfortable to work. An extensive program of press events is planned in all four centers,” said Olga Koleva, chief operator of press centers for non-accredited media.

An important result of the past Confederations Cup was the growing interest in football and sports in the country in general, more and more children want to not only return to the stands in the future, but also play in such a tournament themselves.

“There have been more calls from parents who want to enroll their child in the football section. There was an opportunity not just to recruit, but to select children in the team. In such a situation, it is easier to grow really good players. Russia has a talent search program for ages 10 to 14, which was jointly adopted by the Russian and German football unions. Most children's schools work on it. The Confederations Cup and the World Cup give impetus to the development of football, children have the opportunity to see their favorite stars live, after which they enthusiastically start training, ”says Evgeny Mileshkin, director of the Youth Football School in Moscow, who previously played in the capital's Spartak, Dynamo and Lokomotiv.

Fans who came to Russia for the Confederations Cup highly appreciated the atmosphere of cordiality and hospitality. In Moscow, St. Petersburg, Sochi and Kazan, the guests received a really warm welcome. They had the opportunity not only to communicate informally, but also to participate in specially organized friendly matches between national teams of fans from different countries, which often ended with a joint trip to football. Representatives of foreign delegations also highly appreciated the preparation of cities and their infrastructure for the tournament.

“I came to Russia for the first time. I've been to neighboring countries: Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Tajikistan, so now I'm starting to learn Russian. I like it here. I'm going to go to matches in all four cities of the Confederations Cup, ”said after group stage Tournament Australian fan Les Street.

“Russia is an amazing country. When we arrived, we had no idea what to expect. Pleasant surprises lay in wait for us at every step. I will definitely be back for the World Cup and will advise all my friends to join. Here are the most beautiful women I have ever seen, ”admitted the Mexican Fernando.

After the Confederations Cup, I often heard from fans and journalists that they were sorry that the tournament went so quickly. But less than a year is left before the World Cup, which will last twice as long and in which four times as many matches will be played. A big celebration of football in Russia is yet to be held, and the Confederations Cup has given the whole world an idea of ​​what it will look like.

In Russian cities, where matches of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup will be held in the near future, security measures will be strengthened.

"This is a standard international practice. In our country, similar and even tougher security measures compared to the current ones were introduced during the Olympics and Paralympics in Sochi in 2014. However, the enhanced measures did not prevent either residents of the city or guests from enjoying the festive atmosphere of the Games," — Alexey Lavrishchev, Deputy Head of the FSB Directorate of Russia, emphasized.

TASS talks about the security program that will operate both during the Confederations Cup and in 2018, when Russia will pass Soccer World Cup.

The FSB stepped up filtration measures at the border. The security authorities have closed entry to a sufficiently large number of foreign citizens and stateless persons who may be associated with terrorist activities.

On the sale of alcohol

• In addition to hotels, security measures will be strengthened at stadiums, training grounds and fan zones.

About internal and external migration

• Russian citizens who go to football in another city will have to register within three working days.
• This does not apply to those who settle in hotels, hostels or boarding houses - the administration of the hotel where they stay will take care of their registration. This applies to both Russians and foreigners.
• It is the hotel, and not the fan himself, who will be held liable if it turns out that the person has not been registered.
• The FSB stepped up filtration measures at the border. The security authorities have closed entry to a sufficiently large number of foreign citizens and stateless persons who may be associated with terrorist activities.

On the sale of alcohol

• The sale of alcohol is allowed in stadiums and other facilities that are coming under the control of FIFA. It will be beer from FIFA suppliers.
• The decision on the procedure for the sale of alcohol outside the stadiums remains with the local authorities.
• The Ministry of Internal Affairs made a recommendation on the days of the matches to suspend the sale of alcohol in any container within a radius of up to 2 km from the stadium.
• Bringing alcohol (as well as any other drinks) to stadiums and fan zones will be prohibited.

About traffic restrictions

• Local authorities, if necessary, may impose temporary restrictions on traffic. For example, on sections of roads adjacent to stadiums and training grounds.
• Restrictions may also apply to part of the water areas, but only on match days, at certain hours.
• For the duration of the Confederations Cup and the World Cup, zones have been established in which flights of airplanes, helicopters and other aircraft will be limited or prohibited.
• On the territory of the cities hosting the matches of the World Cup, the entry of buses will be prohibited, with the exception of those operating on municipal routes. Such buses must be equipped with satellite navigation equipment.

About carrying weapons

• Even if you have a permit for a weapon, it is forbidden to carry it with you on the days of the Confederations Cup and the World Cup. The same prohibition applies to explosives and poisonous substances.
• In case of violation of the ban, the weapons will be confiscated and delivered to the internal affairs bodies for storage. No other sanctions are provided.
• The only exception is sporting and service weapons.
