The Minister of Emergency Situations of Armenia, Andranik Piloyan, has congratulated Armenian women on International Women's Day.

"You silently bear on your fragile shoulders responsibility of resolving the most various problems of not only of your families, but also of our country, state—carrying out a patriotic mission in all state and public spheres.

In all the crucial moments of Armenian history, you have stood with your children and husbands—with your patriotism, devotion, justice—, to help make the right decisions. Today, in this historical period, you have something to do again," Piloyan noted in particular in his respective statement, addressing Armenian women.
