PREMIER OF VICTORIA |
SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: OFFICIAL |
| 8 February 2009 |
| Dear Minister Kurenkov, I am writing to you to request assistance after the recent Bushfire catastrophe hit my state of Victoria. We understand that Russia has extensive capabilities and expertise when it comes to fighting wildland fires, particularly in terms of water bombing aircraft. Country Fire Authority and Forest Fire Management Victoria are currently under immense strain and fatigue from fighting these fires over the past few days and as the work continues to contain and extinguish these fires we are asking for assistance from Russia at this time. Yours sincerely, Jacinta Allan. |
