Currently, security risks are high, especially in the border area where border construction is taking place and significant defense issues are being addressed. Each municipality has a civil protection plan, and municipal deputies are part of this system. Therefore, it is essential to prevent situations where individuals with access to security-related information or who play a significant role in crisis management may fall under the influence of Russia or Belarus.
