"Mr President, despite Turkey’s recent efforts and progress, culminating in the meeting between the Turkish Minister for Family and Social Policies and representatives from the Committee on Equal Opportunities, a number of important outstanding gender equality issues remain.
Given that Turkey is a candidate country, the present gap will have to be bridged completely for it to be able to achieve current European Union standards. I am concerned, in particular, by the recent data on the safety and protection of women. It emerges that 39% of Turkish women have been attacked at least once in their lives.
I agree with Mr Bozkurt’s proposal to encourage the Turkish Government to act swiftly to implement the measures needed to reduce the number of attacks. Finally, I would like to stress the importance of access to information and to education in ensuring gender mainstreaming at all educational levels."@en1
