The holding of this session in Azerbaijan is a clear example of our country’s commitment to global security, disaster risk reduction, and civil defense,” the president said, News.Az reports, citing AZERTAC.
The address further stated: “Azerbaijan attaches great importance to international cooperation in the field of civil defense.
