Armenia 2010 NATO disaster response exercise offered a good interaction experience, said major Semen Saak, first deputy head of Belarus special detachment.

“Belarusian rescuers learned to work in heat, what was a test for our rescuers dressed in a special uniform. Our group consists of 9 people, all of us are for the first in Armenia, where we received a warm welcome. I should also say that Armenian rescuers are well trained,” he said.

“A similar exercise to be conducted in Belarus in 2012 will offer us an opportunity to share experience with rescuers from Armenia and other countries,” major Saak added.
