20.02.23: Humanity has no control over the nature

Humanity has no control over the nature. Natural disasters always create emergencies and take away people’s lives, no matter how prepared the society thinks it is. It should be noted that the most destructive catastrophe is earthquake. It comes unexpectedly, leaving behind only death and destruction. Turkey and Syria faced a great tragedy. Devastating earthquakes occurred in several regions of the countries, destroying infrastructures and ruining people’s lives. The misfortune brought indifferent people together. Countries have started sending humanitarian assistance in the affected regions of Turkey and Syria one after another. Our homeland Turkmenistan also didn’t stand aside in that difficult time for Turkey, and regularly sent the most necessary for the affected population. Balkan velayat’s branch of National Red Crescent Society of Turkmenistan contributed to sending of humanitarian aid as well. Employees and volunteers of the organization without sleep and rest were collecting benevolent help. In addition to bringing the most necessary (sanitary-hygienic sets, warm clothes and food), the local population was also actively involved into sorting and loading of  humanitarian assistance.  Only being united we can eliminate the consequences of the natural disaster!!!

THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

– Humanity

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance
without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavours, in its international and
national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose
is to protect life and health and to ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual
understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all peoples.

– Impartiality

It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. It
endeavors to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, and to give
priority to the most urgent cases of distress.

– Neutrality

In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or
engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature.

– Independence

The Movement is independent. The National Societies, while auxiliaries in the humanitarian services
of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, must always maintain
their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with the principles of the
Movement.

– Voluntary service

It is a voluntary relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain.

– Unity

There can be only one Red Cross or one Red Crescent Society in any one country. It must be open
to all. It must carry on its humanitarian work throughout its territory.

– Universality

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, in which all Societies have equal status
and share equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other, is worldwide.
