Why does the Russian Government not offer support to the victims of trafficking?

Ok, I know that the Russian government is begining to help out but it is still considered a 2 Tier Country. So my questions is: why does the Russian government not offer more support to trafficking victims? Is it because of money? Corruption? All of the above? Thanks!

And if you could provide any resolutions to the UN on this issue I would appreciate it.


You will not like this answer, but part of the problem is that the majority of women are considered by the Russian government to have entered into the sex trade voluntarily. They may be smuggled, but as they are not considered victims, they are not considered to be trafficked. Also, there is very little money designated for such social programs.

it's all about money, or the lack thereof.

The Slovak Republic became an independent state in 1993, following the dissolution of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic (CSFR). The Constitution provides for a multiparty, multiethnic parliamentary democracy, including separation of powers.

It's a problem in several countries. The women - often poor and marginalized are kidnapped, deceived or coerced into this awful activity by mostly organized gangs who are sometimes operating w/protection. It will take people joining together to focus attention on the problem then public officials passing stronger laws against trafficking and traffickers. Good police will have to investigate the cases and enforce the laws.

Are you for real?
