Armenia ranks 62nd on World's Safest Countries 2019

Armenia is placed 62nd out of 128 countries with a score of 10.25 on the 2019 Global Finance ranking list of safest countries in the world released on 23 January.

The safety score for countries equally weighs each of the three factors: war and peace, personal security, and natural disaster risk. The safety score aggregates the indices from these three risks, thus presenting a comprehensive view of safety for each country.

Among the neighbouring counters, Azerbaijan is ranked 71st, Iran comes 77th and Turkey – 107th. Georgia leads the way for the region with a score of 9.68, making it 49th on the list. 

The U.S. ranks almost exactly in the middle at 65th, while Russia comes 108th.

Island tops the World's Safest Countries 2019 list, followed by Switzerland and Finland. The top ten also features Portugal, Austria, Norway, Qatar, Singapore, Denmark and New Zealand.
