    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.
