Russia does not fear a terrorist attack at the 2018 World Cup, organising committee chief Alexey Sorokin told Germany's Die Welt daily Saturday.
Russian authorities have "developed a concept and a strategy which we believe is so good that there will be no attacks during the 2018 World Cup," he said.
Sorokin, 43, said there had never been a terrorist attack at a football World Cup and Russia "won't be an exception".
Russian security plans were not changed after the terrorist attacks in Paris and near the Stade de France in Saint-Denis on November 13, he said.
