Japan's government has launched a series of initiatives to shore up the economy following the magnitude-9.0 quake and tsunami on March 11 that triggered an unfolding nuclear crisis.

The complex was designed to protect against tsunamis of up to 5 meters.

Meanwhile, oil companies and European countries say Aliyev will not start a war. But Azerbaijan is furnishing itself with as many arms as possible and at times it seems she’s going to fight not against the 140-thousand population of Karabakh, but with a country as large as Iran, including human resources and armament. However, it is also possible that in reality all these weapons are purchased for entry into Southern Azerbaijan, if suddenly the U.S. decides to resolve the Iranian nuclear issue through military means. But now the international community has neither time nor inclination for Iran or Azerbaijan. To the Arab unrests there are also added the devastating earthquake in Japan, increased radiation, rising prices for food and much more that the world community really cares about. For some reason France decided to take on the role of the U.S., and now she’s going to bomb Libya. Why does Paris need it? The answer is indistinct, but, in any case, the Arab riots will, at best, result in another Iraq. Maybe this is why Aliyev is constantly speaking of war, taking advantage of the world situation.

Supporters of the Armenian National Congress opposition bloc are using social networks to spread information about the future plans. Particularly, opposition activists have already launched Armenian Revolution of reform: March 1, 2011 page on Facebook to inform of the actions planned for March 1. They also created #1mar hashtag in microblog Twitter, where they inform of the mass rally dated to the 3rd anniversary of the March 1, 2008 events, when 10 people were killed and thousands injured. Armenian opposition follows the example of Tunisia and Egypt as well as other Arab states, where organizers of disorders employed social media to implement their plans.

All admit that Armenia is facing social discontent and division of the public. Despite the leadership’s resoluteness to struggle against these phenomena, social tensions grow and the recent statements by the opposition demonstrate their intention to grab power on the wave of popular discontent.

The National Security Strategy of Armenia describes low birth rate as one of the threats to the country’s national security.
