The U.S. State Department annual report on human trafficking, which was released on 11 June, commends the Armenian authorities\' efforts over the past year to crack down on that practice, RFE/RL\'s Yerevan bureau reported on 14 June. The report placed Armenia among 74 countries that are making \"significant efforts\" to comply with the \"minimum requirements\" for eliminating human trafficking. Last year Armenia was ranked among those countries that were perceived to be doing little, if anything, to crack down on human trafficking. (RFE/RL)
