ALL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING ACHIEVEMENTS SHOULD BE USED IN STRUGGLE AGAINST DISASTERS IN ARMENIA - TERTERYAN
YEREVAN, March 3. /ARKA/. All science and engineering achievements
should be used in struggle against disasters in Armenia, Vache
Terteryan, first deputy territorial administration and emergency
minister, said Tuesday at the opening of an inter-university student
scientific conference focused on protection of the population and
civil defense in crisis situations.
"Our country is vulnerable in terms of possible threats probable
not only because of its geographic location and climate, but also
because of technology saturation," he said. "It is not a secret that
we have 'a big chemistry', mining industry and hydraulic engineering
installations, which increase various risks."
Terteryan said that is why such a great attention is paid to this
area in Armenia. "It will not sound too loudly if I say that struggle
against disasters is science-intensive area, and all scientific and
technical achievements should be used here," he said.
The deputy minister stressed that the conference will be a good
platform for scientific activity and first steps of students on the
science road.
"I am happy that representatives of the majority of Armenian
universities are present at the conference, and we will do whatever
is necessary to make such conferences traditional and wider-scale,"
Terteryan said. ---0-----
