@2196 Trafficking in persons

Albania
  current situation: Albania is a source country for women and
  girls trafficked for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation
  and forced labor; it is no longer considered a major country of
  transit; Albanian victims are trafficked to Greece, Italy,
  Macedonia, and Kosovo, with many trafficked onward to Western
  European countries; children were also trafficked to Greece for
  begging and other forms of child labor; approximately half of all
  Albanian trafficking victims are under age 18; internal sex
  trafficking of women and children is on the rise
  tier rating: Tier 2 Watch List - Albania is on the Tier 2 Watch List
  for its failure to provide evidence of increasing efforts to combat
  trafficking in persons in 2007, particularly in the area of victim
  protection; the government did not appropriately identify
  trafficking victims during 2007, and has not demonstrated that it is
  vigorously investigating or prosecuting complicit officials (2008)

Algeria
  current situation: Algeria is a transit country for men and
  women trafficked from sub-Saharan Africa to Europe for the purposes
  of commercial sexual exploitation and involuntary servitude;
  Algerian children are trafficked internally for the purpose of
  domestic servitude or street vending
  tier rating: Tier 3 - Algeria did not report any serious law
  enforcement actions to punish traffickers who force women into
  commercial sexual exploitation or men into involuntary servitude in
  2007; the government again reported no investigations of trafficking
  of children for domestic servitude or improvements in protection
  services available to victims of trafficking; Algeria still lacks
  victim protection services, and its failure to distinguish between
  trafficking and illegal migration may result in the punishment of
  victims of trafficking (2008)

Argentina
  current situation: Argentina is a source, transit, and
  destination country for men, women, and children trafficked for the
  purposes of commercial sexual exploitation and forced labor; most
  victims are trafficked within the country, from rural to urban
  areas; child sex tourism is a problem; foreign women and children,
  primarily from Paraguay, Brazil, and the Dominican Republic, are
  trafficked to Argentina for commercial sexual exploitation;
  Argentine women and girls are also trafficked to neighboring
  countries, Mexico, and Western Europe for sexual exploitation; a
  significant number of Bolivians, Peruvians, and Paraguayans are
  trafficked into the country for forced labor in sweatshops,
  agriculture, and as domestic servants
  tier rating: Tier 2 Watch List - despite some progress, Argentina
  remains on the Tier 2 Watch List for the third consecutive year for
  its failure to show evidence of increasing efforts to combat human
  trafficking, particularly in terms of providing adequate assistance
  to victims and curbing official complicity with trafficking
  activity, especially on the provincial and local levels; the
  Argentine Congress has demonstrated progress by enacting much-needed
  and first-ever federal anti-trafficking legislation (2008)

Armenia
  current situation: Armenia is primarily a source country for
  women and girls trafficked to the UAE and Turkey for the purpose of
  commercial sexual exploitation; Armenian men and women are
  trafficked to Turkey and Russia for the purpose of forced labor
  tier rating: Tier 2 Watch List - Armenia is placed on the Tier 2
  Watch List for a fourth consecutive year; its efforts to increase
  compliance with the minimum standards were assessed based on its
  commitments to undertake future actions, particularly in the areas
  of improving victim protection and assistance; while the government
  elevated anti-trafficking responsibilities to the ministerial level,
  adopted a new National Action Plan, and drafted a National Referral
  Mechanism, it has yet to show tangible progress in identifying and
  protecting victims or in tackling trafficking complicity of
  government officials; the Armenian Government made some notable
  improvements in its anti-trafficking law enforcement efforts, but it
  failed to demonstrate evidence of investigations, prosecutions,
  convictions, and sentences of officials complicit in trafficking
  (2008)

Azerbaijan
  current situation: Azerbaijan is primarily a source and
  transit country for men, women, and children trafficked for the
  purposes of commercial sexual exploitation and forced labor; women
  and some children from Azerbaijan are trafficked to Turkey and the
  UAE for the purpose of sexual exploitation; men and boys are
  trafficked to Russia for the purpose of forced labor; Azerbaijan
  serves as a transit country for victims from Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan,
  Kazakhstan, and Moldova trafficked to Turkey and the UAE for sexual
  exploitation
  tier rating: Tier 2 Watch List - Azerbaijan is on the Tier 2 Watch
  List for its failure to provide evidence of increasing efforts to
  combat trafficking in persons, particularly efforts to investigate,
  prosecute, and punish traffickers; to address complicity among law
  enforcement personnel; and to adequately identify and protect
  victims in Azerbaijan; the government has yet to develop a
  much-needed mechanism to identify potential trafficking victims and
  refer them to safety and care; poor treatment of trafficking victims
  in courtrooms continues to be a problem (2008)

Bahrain
  current situation: Bahrain is a destination country for men
  and women trafficked for the purposes of involuntary servitude and
  commercial sexual exploitation; men and women from Africa, South
  Asia, and Southeast Asia migrate voluntarily to Bahrain to work as
  laborers or domestic servants where some face conditions of
  involuntary servitude such as unlawful withholding of passports,
  restrictions on movements, non-payment of wages, threats, and
  physical or sexual abuse; women from Thailand, Morocco, Eastern
  Europe, and Central Asia are trafficked to Bahrain for the purpose
  of commercial sexual exploitation
  tier rating: Tier 2 Watch List - Bahrain is on the Tier 2 Watch List
  for failing to show evidence of increased efforts to combat human
  trafficking, particularly efforts that enforce laws against
  trafficking in persons, and that prevent the punishment of victims
  of trafficking; during 2007, Bahrain passed a comprehensive law
  prohibiting all forms of trafficking in persons; the government also
  established a specialized anti-trafficking unit within the Ministry
  of Interior to investigate trafficking crimes; however, the
  government did not report any prosecutions or convictions for
  trafficking offenses during 2007, despite reports of a substantial
  problem of involuntary servitude and sex trafficking (2008)

Burma
  current situation: Burma is a source country for women,
  children, and men trafficked for the purpose of forced labor and
  commercial sexual exploitation; Burmese women and children are
  trafficked to East and Southeast Asia for commercial sexual
  exploitation, domestic servitude, and forced labor; Burmese children
  are subjected to conditions of forced labor in Thailand as hawkers,
  beggars, and for work in shops, agriculture, fish processing, and
  small-scale industries; women are trafficked for commercial sexual
  exploitation to Malaysia and China; some trafficking victims transit
  Burma from Bangladesh to Malaysia and from China to Thailand;
  internal trafficking occurs primarily from villages to urban centers
  and economic hubs for labor in industrial zones, agricultural
  estates, and commercial sexual exploitation; military and civilian
  officials continue to use a significant amount of forced labor;
  ethnic insurgent groups also used compulsory labor of adults and
  unlawful recruitment of children; the military junta's gross
  economic mismanagement, human rights abuses, and its policy of using
  forced labor are the top
