Yerevan, 14 June: The US State Department's fifth annual Trafficking
in Persons Report will help Armenia implement its future programmes
in this sphere. Serious tasks have been set, but Armenia is unhappy
about some points of the report and will raise its objections soon,
Armenia's Prosecutor-General Agvan Ovsepyan told a press conference
on 14 June.
The report said in particular that Armenia had serious problems with
human trafficking. It said that Armenia had been placed on a watch
list this year because of its failure to show evidence of increasing
efforts to combat trafficking over the past year.
Many sectors of the government do not officially recognize the problem
and the government failed to disseminate or implement any elements
of its national action plan, the report said.
