The current perception of the NMT is frightening and adds stress; this should be corrected.
We have already discussed this with the Prime Minister, the minister, and the team at the Office of the President. For next year, we need to provide different, more, so to speak, convenient conditions for taking the NMT. So that children take the NMT exclusively in safe shelters, and so that all this does not depend on whether something is flying or not flying. On all the organizational problems
He added that "we need to think about how to reduce the intensity of the NMT in order to relieve children psychologically".
And we need to think about the timing - so that children have the opportunity to take the NMT again if there was a mistake or stress, to give them the opportunity to take it a second time
