 US reports on the relations between Yazidis and the Armenian government have been mixed.According to a 2004 U.S. Department of State human rights report, Yazidis are subjected to some harassment in Armenia.Attendance school rates among children in the Yezidi ethnic minority continued to be lower than average, partially due to economic reasons, a lack of Yezidi teachers and books, and the early removal of teenage girls from schools for marriage.
