    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Trafficking is not only transportation of people
    abroad, said OSCE special representative and human trafficking
    coordinator Eva Bede at the news conference. According to her, human
    trafficking is frequently implemented inside the country. Eva Bede
    brought up numerous examples of people exploitation, touched upon
    all variants of the trade in people and stressed the necessity of
    comprehensive approach in finding solutions to the problem.

    Answering the question of a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, what are the
    main goals of the newly opened Help Center for Trafficking Victims,
    Eva Bede particularly told, that the center is aimed at studying the
    problem of trafficking in the country.

    According to her, raised public awareness of all possible options of
    human trading contributes to its further prevention.

    The data on trafficking victims on the territory of Armenia
    is not exact and should be corrected. According to the data of
    non-governmental organizations, the number of detected crimes in the
    area of human trafficking was 8 in 2007 and 4 in 2007 in Armenia. Eva
    Bede also noted, that 80 per cent of trafficking victims are women.
