    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "To some extent I agree with the assessments made
    in the U.S. State Department's report on the situation with human
    rights in Armenia, but in general the report is incomplete," Eduard
    Sharmazanov , Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) parliamentary group
    secretary told journalists at the National Assembly of Armenia.

    According Sharmazanov, there are problems with human rights, corruption
    and democracy in Armenia, like in any other country, this is not
    news. " The report is incomplete since it does not cover all the
    facts reflecting the development of democracy and human rights in
    Armenia. A good example of that omission is the amnesty declared by
    the Armenian president, establishment of the Public Council and the
    ongoing reforms in the police system," he said.

    "The United States must first monitor the activities of their country
    in the world, and then write reports about other countries," Gagik
    Tsarukyan, head of the Prosperous Armenia parliamentary group said.

    On 12 March 2010 the U.S. State Department issued a report on the
    development of human rights in the world. The reports criticized the
    Armenian authorities for exerting pressure on the media and human
    rights non-compliance.
