Representatives of 35 countries, including 12 ministers of emergency services, have gathered in this room to exchange experiences and learn from the best in the struggle for the safety of people. "
The main topic of discussion was the integration of civil defense and the unified state system of the Unified State System of Prevention and Elimination of Emergency Situations to ensure effective protection of the population in both peacetime and wartime.
Deputy Minister Viktor Yatsutsenko spoke about the use of space technologies and information intelligent systems in forecasting, preventing and eliminating emergencies. He explained that the main efforts of the department are aimed at preventing the threat of emergency situations.
"The efficiency and coherence of the response of all links of the Unified State System of Prevention and Elimination of Emergency Situations is achieved by high-quality information exchange," Oleg Manuylo, Director of the Civil Defense and Population Protection Department of the Ministry of Emergencies of Russia, emphasized in his report. In order to organize information interaction and information support for decision-making in the field of civil defense and protection from emergencies, the introduction of automated information systems continues.
