Today, the United States lives in one infoovode - the inauguration of President Joe Bayden. In the States, this event a priori is considered very important, but this time there is much more attention to it than usual. We will remind, only two weeks ago the Capitoli, on the steps of which today will pronounce the presidential oath Biden, was put the assault. Increased safety measures are introduced in Washington: the landing of the military, issued to them permission to wear weapons and restrictions on the travel. So, we tell how the preparation for the inauguration of Biden was prepared and what happens during the ceremony itself.
Recall, after the assault capitol, the FBI warned Americans about new possible acts of violence. Actually, this is the reason for strengthening security measures in Washington. The secret service takes responsibility, but this time to follow security along with it will be the Police of District Columbia and the National Guard.
We give a little digit to understand the situation. On the day of the inauguration of Trump in Washingon, 8 thousand National Guardians were present. This time their number will be increased to 25 thousand - it is five times more than the number of American soldiers placed in Iraq and Afghanistan. And here is another important feature: the Pentagon's servicemen allowed to carry weapons.
It is noted that one of the main goals of National Guardians - to provide the personnel dozens of CAT in the center of Washington. More than a dozen metro stations in the city will close, the number of trains in the metropolitan region will decrease, and the station will be at the stations.
As for the Capitol and the White House, the building will be fenced with wire all over the perimeter. After the oath, Biden and his vice-president, Harrick will switch to the eastern side of the Capitol, where the Supreme Commander will take a military parade. Then Biden will lay a wreath on Arlington Cemetery along with the ex-presidents Barack Obama, George Bush - younger and Bill Clinton. Trump, by the way, violates the tradition and will miss the inauguration of his rival in the elections.
In addition to the threat of violence, they do not forget about coronavir in the country. The Inauguration Committee asked Americans to stay at home because of a pandemic.
In general, it is not necessary to hope for a large crowd of fans on the national alley this time, Bideno does not have. It was decided that on the inauguration it will be replaced by 200 thousand exhibited along the alleys of American flags. Western media report that the number of guests who will be present when pronouncing the oath will not exceed 100 people. All of them will be masked, give the test for coronavirus and will be replicated according to the rules of distance.
