Armenia again rated “Not Free”
Armenia is portrayed in dark colours on the map of the Washington-based Freedom House organization.
On May 2, 2011, Freedom House issued its annual report "Freedom of the Press 2011" where Armenia ranks among the 63 countries which are rated "Not Free."
Of the 196 countries and territories assessed during 2010, a total of 68 (35 percent) were rated Free, 65 (33 percent) were rated Partly Free, and 63 (32 percent) were rated Not Free. The report also noted several key trends driving the ongoing threats to media freedom.
Azerbaijan, Iran, and Russia remain countries of concern, which fall into the group of "Not Free" countries while Georgia and Turkey were rated as "Partly Free."
