Demonstrations and Riots, War / Conflict |  Tens of thousands demonstrated against violence against women

Demonstrations and Riots, War / Conflict | Tens of thousands demonstrated against violence against women

Posted on November 27, 2021November 27, 2021 by LoveMommy

Tens of thousands took part in celebrations around the world on Thursday at the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

Demonstrations were held in European cities such as Paris, Madrid, Barcelona and London, and demonstrations were also held in Latin American countries such as Chile, Venezuela, Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras. In Istanbul, Turkey, riot police used tear gas against protesters demanding that the government join the international convention on the prevention and combating of violence against women and violence in close relationships. Turkey withdrew from the convention earlier this year, known as the Istanbul Convention, because, according to the Turkish government, it undermines traditional family values. The decision has provoked strong reactions in a country where, according to human rights organizations, 345 women have been killed so far this year.

Fight case in Spain

In Spain, the government has made the fight against violence in close relations one of its main issues, and on Thursday there were therefore large celebrations in a number of the country’s cities. So far this year, 37 women have been killed by partners or partners in Spain. – It is a national priority to end sexist violence, tweeted Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, a self-proclaimed feminist who leads a government of more women than men.

One in three

Nearly one in three women in the world has experienced physical or sexual violence, the vast majority of whom they knew, according to UN Women, the UN’s organization for equality. – Violence against women is a global crisis. In all neighborhoods, there are women who are in danger, says the organization’s leader Sima Bahous.

Feige

Pope Francis also commented on Thursday’s celebration. – Women who are victims of violence must be protected by society, tweeted the head of the Catholic Church. – The various forms of abuse that many women suffer from are cowardly and degrading for men and for all of humanity. We can not see another way, writes the pope. (© NTB)
