According to Anna Hakobyan, there are wars in different parts of the world today, and there is a high possibility of starting military operations in some regions. Considering all this, it is necessary for women who make decisions and hold high positions to unite, find a solution, and make the world safer, emphasized the Prime Minister's wife.

The summit held in Yerevan will differ from others in that this time, only women will participate in the event; the platform will be used to exchange ideas, analyze, highlight the existing dangers, and fight against them.

During the dialogue, Anna Hakobyan and Catherine de Bolle also highlighted the increase in women's involvement in saving children's lives, noting that hundreds of children have died during wars in recent years, which is unforgivable.
