Armenia toward the fight against security and nuclear terrorism, I
would like to invite you to participate in the Nuclear Security Summit,
which will take place April 12-13, 2010, at the Washington Convention

of the threat of nuclear terrorism and the danger of spreading nuclear
materials with the aim of using them for civil and military means.
"As individuals who bear the responsibility for nuclear materials,
we must pledge to reduce its availability wherever possible and apply
the highest standards in securing the remains of nuclear materials."
