Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has returned to Moscow, interrupting a working trip in Siberia, after terrorists exploded two bombs in the Metro, killing dozens.
He visited one of the hospitals in Moscow where four people were operated on and five others are now in intensive care units.
Speaking earlier in Krasnoyarsk, the Prime Minister said that the government would allocate additional means for strengthening security on public transport. “If necessary, we will have to make changes to the law, bearing in mind that municipal transport is not a state property,” Putin said. He stressed, however, that security is a common objective.
Putin also said that he had charged Transport Minister Igor Levitin and Health Minister Tatyana Golikova with preparing a governmental order to pay compensation to those wounded in the March 29 Moscow Metro attacks, as well as to the relatives of those killed. The Prime Minister said the order must be ready by Monday evening.
Two explosions took place on two stations of the Moscow Metro on Monday morning, killing at least 38 people and injuring dozens more.

Culture activists responding to the terror in Moscow’s MetroCulture institutions, along with media companies are changing their program and canceling all their entertainment events, and instead paying tribute to Monday’s tragedy on the Moscow Metro. |
And you dont stop Iran from having atom bomb. Just think what would happen if they had atom, eventually it would get to the wrong hands and i do believe those terroriests will use it against Russia
Bad news, and very sad news. I wonder how come all these so-called "terrorists" always manage to find finances and such a brain washed motivation to kill innocents along with them. I totally agree that they are not religious based, because that doesn't make any sense. Fascists have been using religions grounds to justify their violence from thousands of year as shows in history. And suddenly Germany thinks its a great time for US and RF to get together to fight terrorism. Ya great!!! (f****** great) I mean that make perfect sense. Get well soon and take care People Luv from Horizon












@Doublespeak Well said. Since 89 they started importing terrorist and Wahabbists in the South Caucasus with western intelligence creating terrorist and organised crime networks to groups in Grozny and secretly started training Chechens and connections to international jihadist groups and establishing a European/Mid East network in 91 in Bosnia just like they tried to do in WW2. Like Bosnia and Kosovo and the lies they told about those wars are the same lies about the Chechen conflict that they started as a pretext to get a NATO presence in the Southern Caucasus RT really needs to get former CIA counter terrorism official in Russia Paul Murphy to interview him the foremost terrorism expert on terrorism in Russia and the only person to cover it full time Russian Eurasian Terror Watch Analysis www.retwa.com
