The OSCE office in Yerevan organized the first national working
meeting on money-laundering and financing terrorism today.
The main objective of the meeting was to familiarize Armenia with the
experience European states have accumulated in fighting
money-laundering and financing terrorism, the head of the Yerevan
office of the OSCE, Vladimir Pryakhin, said.
Armenian Prosecutor-General Agvan Ovsepyan said today that no crimes
related to funding of terrorism have been registered in Armenia. Yet
he said that one of the shortcomings of Armenia's new Criminal Code is
that it lacks a separate clause envisaging punishment for financing
terrorism.
