Azerbaijan is a transit country for people who are trafficked to Turkey, Russia and the UAE. These are the states that use men, women and children the most. Usually women and some children are trafficked for sexual exploitation, and the men and boys are trafficked for forced labor. Other countries that have victims being trafficked are Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Moldova. Unfortunately Azerbaijan has not shown any recent efforts in finding or punishing the people responsible for the trafficking, and apparently does not treat the victims very nicely.
