Armenia to donate $100,000 to Haiti earthquake relief

21 January 2010 [16:43] - TODAY.AZ
Armenia will donate $100,000 for Haiti earthquake relief, Armenian Prime Minister said.
“Armenia was on alert several hours after the quake. Some 50 rescuers stood ready to depart for Haiti but couldn’t due to some technical reasons. Armenia’s anxiety is understandable. Our country which experienced consequences of a devastating earthquake, was rendered assistance by international structures in due time,” Tigran Sargsyan said during a government session.

“We want to help and this $100,000 will be spent on reconstruction works,” he said.
