Istanbul Merkezi from the Turkish Bar Association: ‘We are not giving up’
The Union of Turkish Bar Associations Women’s Law Commission (TÜBAKKlar Union Women’s Law Commission) carried out studies on the 11th anniversary of the decision to sign the Istanbul Convention. Here is the description:
“11 years ago; On May 11, 2011, an international convention presented by the Republic and one of the world’s most prestigious honors in Turkey, Istanbul, was opened for signature by states.
The “Council of Europe Convention on Combating Domestic Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence”, the comprehensive “Council of Europe Convention on women” and the course of the basic standards forwarded by the Council of Europe, of which Turkey is also one, and related to them. as versatile. They will go to the states parties with a mission and will go down in history as the first contract. As the contract whose first signatory was Turkey and which was named after Istanbul.
“THE PRESIDENTIAL DECISION WAS PUBLISHED AT MIDNIGHT…”
We should have been able to celebrate this day’s anniversaries with honor and mission. However, like those of us who could not celebrate, the décolleté is faced with the recovery of what is obtained by stitching stitches. We, as women lawyers, are natural defenders of human rights and with all our freedom; From the 11th signatory of the Istanbul Convention, ‘contesting a party with the will of the Turkish Grand Assembly’ will never be accepted with the decision to form one night against our Nation. This transaction, which clearly has the characteristics of usurpation, is in a state of non-existence. It will not give up neither the Istanbul Convention nor our only acquired right; We will continue our struggle until we stop the violence against violence.
In the case files filed with the request of the cancellation of the tender from the Istanbul Convention by the presidential decision and which are still being debated in the Council of State; It will be logical and logical, illogical, groundbreaking.
Istanbul Convention, Turkey’s Issue, Turkey’s cause. In the cases of the cancellation of the approval of the membership from the Convention in the Council of State; Since this contract for fundamental rights and freedoms cannot be exited with the will of one person, it depends on whether the future will be adhered to or not.
“WE DO NOT WAIT ON THE ISTANBUL AGREEMENT”
We, as lawyers, are in the process of realizing the rule of law with human rights, once again at the 11th stage of the Turkish language for signature: I will not give up on the Istanbul Convention!”
