A team of emergency response experts and hazardous materials
specialists from the US Department of Defense and Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) is in Yerevan to conduct a realistic two-day
training scenario October 17-18, 2006. This training scenario,
which takes place at the Emergency Management Academy and involves a
simulated Weapons of Mass Destruction incident, is the culminating
event in a series of courses taught by this team in Armenia over
the past few years under the US Department of Defense International
Counter-proliferation Program.
During this visit, the team also is providing training for
representatives from the Armenian Rescue Service, the Ministry of
Defense and the RA Police on the use of detection and monitoring
equipment, as well as evidence collection equipment. This equipment
was part of a US Government equipment donation to the Government of
Armenia in July that totaled more than $300,000.
