Generally, Armenia is not a country where gender issues are easily resolved, according to the head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan.
“Armenian women do not seem constrained but there are environments where their potential is not used, for example security system,” Sergei Kapinos told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. “To help women fulfill their potential, Armenia should take up a correct social policy. Woman is the keeper of the family hearth. But if her family experiences problems, she will not be able to engage in public activities.”
