"Mr President, the situation of women in Pakistan and Afghanistan is very alarming and extremely serious. It is now 10 years since the Petersberg Conference in Bonn, at which the international community began to build Afghanistan’s democratic future. Rape, abuse, the trafficking of women, children being forced into marriage and violence in the home are the fate of almost every woman in Afghanistan. Nevertheless, they rarely result in action on the part of the police or the judicial authorities. With the Taleban gone, the Afghans have of course been given constitutional social rights and access to education, yet discrimination still exists in access to basic health care and cultural life generally. Women must be allowed to participate actively in building a democratic, secure and open society. Afghanistan cannot just ignore women, who make up more than half the entire country’s population. Unfortunately, the situation is just as bad in Pakistan."@en1
