"Mr President, despite the progress that Turkey has made on human rights, I regret to say that violence against women is still one of the country’s most pressing problems. The official Turkish statistics are alarming: 39% of Turkish women are victims of violence.
The establishment of the Committee on Equal Opportunities within the Turkish Parliament and the Gender Equality Commission within the Ministry of Education represent a step forward. The recognition of Turkish women’s rights must be an essential part of the negotiations for accession to the European Union. They must be granted the same rights to education, access to employment and to justice that men have.
I voted in favour of the report because I hope that Parliament’s requests will be accepted in full by the European Commission."@en1
