In and around the National Stadium, more than 5,000 uniformed members of the Armed Forces and National Police will stand guard. Additionally, there will be 200 undercover police and military inside.

Each gate will have patrols, police vehicles and military trucks to be used in case of an emergency. A few meters from the entrances to the National Stadium, a third ring of security ensures a presence in strategic locations. Security will be active at the entrances to the city. These posts will be manned by 200 police officers, and an equal number of military officers.

Snipers are to be stationed at strategic points, and bomb squads will make a thorough search of the stadium and at all locations that special events are planned for the inauguration. Security cameras have been installed as well.

Rigorous standards will be in place in order to enter the National Stadium. Outside the sports facility, and at each of the 12 entries, combined platoons will make a thorough search of all persons entering the stands. In addition to the banning of guns and knives, any objects, sharp or otherwise, that may endanger individuals will not be allowed. Flags may be brought in, but only without sticks, pipes or other objects that could be used as a weapon.
