to
Get
Disaster
Mitigation
Aid
from
Russia
Nicaragua
will
have
more
collaboration
from
Russia
in
environmental
emergency
management
to
prevent
and
mitigate
disasters,
announced
Coordinator
of
the
Communication
and
Citizenship
Council,
Rosario
Murillo.
She
explained
that
this
strengthening
of
links
is
part
of
agreements
signed
during
the
latest
round
of
the
joint
bilateral
commission
recently
held
in
Moscow.
"Nicaragua
is a
highly
seismic
territory
and
we
have
to
be
ready
to
face
such
a
contingency
or
others
like
heavy
rain
and
out-of-season
drought
caused
by
climate
change,"
noted
Murillo.
She
said
that
due
to
such
phenomena,
there
are
changes
in
the
cycles
of
wildlife
reproduction,
new
plagues
emerge
and
the
countryâ�Ös
crops
are
affected.
