Freedom House international organization published its annual report on
nations in transit covering the situation in 29 post soviet countries,
including Armenia.
According to the report the democratic and human rights situation
in those countries are downgrading, and the worst situation has been
recorded in Russia.
The organization expressed concerns over freedom of media in 10
countries, half of which are EU member countries. In 14 out of 29
countries freedom index has been significantly reduced.
Armenia hasn’t changed any status since previous year – it’s declared
as “semi authoritarian” country. The report says the worst decline
has been recorded in Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.
