We could write dozens more news headlines. In 2021, 67 women were killed by their husbands, ex-girlfriends, fathers or brothers in the last 65 days. Every year, every month, every day, femicides continue to be committed. We have also seen the news of women who were beaten by a man they did not know because they were wearing shorts. There is great pressure on women and they do not feel safe in the face of the law. After every news we read, the Istanbul Convention comes to the fore. Without the Istanbul Convention, women’s deaths, harassment and rape will increase; people are afraid of it.<\/div>\n
