On the basis of the analysis of the models characterizing the preparation of starting earthquakes for different types of stresses on tectonic plates and types of faults the analysis of earthquakes' beginning probabilities is implemented. This analysis may at the same time show ways to deflect them, i.e. to possibly reduce earthquake risk. It is determined that among the factors affecting the probability of the beginning and elimination of strong starting earthquakes there are such phenomena as ways to distribute stress on tectonic plates and ways to affect the edges of tectonic plates. Also, the probability of the beginning of starting earthquakes may be affected by peculiarities of faults' conditions, in particular the areas of "adhesion" of the faults' edges or their absence. Apart from that, the conditions of the lower, ground-contacting boundaries of tectonic plates may affect the nature of earthquakes.
