Armenia hosts rescuers training with US and UK

MediaMax, Armenia

The Ministry informed that the training covered the situation “Chemical and radiation monitoring, firefighting, and rescue after collision of chlorine gas carrier and two passenger trains”.

U.S. Ambassador to Armenia Richard Mills, UK Ambassador Judith Margaret Farnworth, and U.S. Adjutant General of Kansas Lee Tafanelli followed the training and shared their appreciation of close cooperation between their respective countries and Armenian Ministry of Emergency Situations.

“People in our countries demand high standards of emergency response from us and I believe that results of this training laid foundation for reaching that milestone together,” said Armenian Minister of Emergency Situations Davit Tonoyan.

The Minister handed certificates of gratitude to 18 members of Kansas National Guard and the British Army 6th Battalion. The fire and rescue brigade of Lusakert received the course certificate from their retraining team. 

Emil Lazarian: “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
