U.S. CRITICISM OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN ARMENIA IS EXAGGERATED
YEREVAN, March 5 (RIA Novosti's Gamlet Matevosyan) - Criticism by the
United States State Department of human rights in Armenia is
exaggerated and biased, says press secretary of the Armenian Foreign
Ministry Gamlet Gaspayan in the statement, reaching RIA Novosti on
Saturday.
The Armenian Foreign Ministry has carefully studied the annual human
rights report of the U.S. Department of State and notes with
satisfaction that the report "clearly seals the stable transition of
Armenia to the market economy".
Simultaneously, Mr. Gasparyan noted that the report also makes note
of Armenia's human rights oversights last year.
"Although the criticism reflected in the report is exaggerated and
biased, it still can provide the basis and guiding light for the
attainment of greater progress in the sphere of civil and human
rights", Mr. Gasparyan believes.
