lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of the report on a 2020 perspective for women in Turkey because Turkey, as a candidate country for accession to the EU, must continue on its path towards greater involvement of women in all spheres of society. In Turkey, women still suffer from worrying discrimination which urgently needs to be wiped out. I refer, in particular, to violence against women, as two or three women are killed every day by their husbands, boyfriends, families or ex-spouses. The Turkish Statistical Institute even states that 39% of women have encountered physical violence at some point in their lives. The Turkish Government must increase sentences and adopt a zero-tolerance policy towards the perpetrators of such acts. A further serious source of social marginalisation of women in Turkey is the high rate of female illiteracy which particularly affects rural areas. It is essential that the Turkish Government continues with campaigns aimed at increasing the participation of women in primary and secondary education. Only in this way can we facilitate the participation of women in the world of work and increase the employment rate for women, which is currently at 30%."@en1
