“We know we cannot underestimate the importance of emergency planning in our region, nor can we assume we’ll have ample warning time. If an earthquake or terrorist attack hits, we won’t necessarily have advance alerts or opportunities to double- and triple-check our plans”
Ellen Tauscher, US Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs 2009-2012
