Andrii Demchenko, spokesperson for Ukraine's State Border Guard Service, said this during a television broadcast, according to Ukrinform.
Asked where border guards most frequently detect attempts to illegally cross the state border, Demchenko said: "Traditionally, it is the section of the border with Romania. We record the largest number of violators precisely on this section of the border. The border with Moldova is in second place."
According to Demchenko, significantly fewer attempts to illegally cross the border are recorded on other sections.
