ARMENIA ESTABLISHES COMMISSION TO PROBE HUMAN TRAFFICKING. Armenian
Prime Minister Markarian established a special government commission
on 16 October that is to investigate allegations that the country has
failed to comply with the "minimum standards" to prevent human
trafficking, RFE/RL's Yerevan bureau reported. A U.S. report issued
last June alleged that Armenia is "a source country for women and
girls trafficked to the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Russia, Greece,
and Germany for sexual exploitation." LF
