World Press Freedom Index: Armenia placed 50th among 180 countries
Armenia slipper from 34th to 50th out of 180 countries in the new World Press Freedom Index issued by Reporters Without Borders (RSF).
With an overall score of 67.02 Armenia remains among the higher-ranked states in the region despite a decline from previous years.
“Despite Armenia’s varied media landscape, its media remains polarized. The country is facing an unprecedented level of disinformation and hate speech fed by internal political tension, security problems at the country’s borders and the country’s complicated position between Russia and the European Union,” RSF said in the report.
Globally, RSF said the 2026 index reflects a worsening environment for journalism worldwide, with press freedom declining in 100 out of 180 countries assessed.
