"Greatest danger that exists for us is the danger of seismic
instability, then come floods and heavy rains, landslides, hail, strong
winds and storms and drought," Nikolay Grigoryan, consultant to the
director of the Rescue Service of the Armenian Emergency Situations
Ministry mentioned and added that our country treats the wounds of
Spitak earthquake.

"The National platform of reducing the risks of the catastrophes
will give us an opportunity to concentrate the potential of the
country on the worked out strategy, our possibilities and abilities,
to involve the international organizations and their possibilities,"
N. Grigoryan noticed.

The speaker also informed that in the Hyogo city of Japan in 2005
was held the international conference referring to the reducing of
the catastrophes on which were present 145 countries who signed the
Hyogo activities’ plan. Armenian has also joined that program.

According to him Hyogo activities’ plan supposes creation of a system
reducing the catastrophes.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
