Roman KСтамбульська конвенція в Чехії остаточно відміняється! Консервативний уряд Бабіша не буде навіть намагатися її ратифікувати.
У червні 2023 року уряд Фіали рекомендував ратифікувати конвенцію. Однак вона не пройшла необхідну процедуру затвердження в парламенті. Кабінет Бабіша скасував рекомендаційну резолюцію попереднього уряду. З цього випливає, що за цього уряду жоден державний орган не займатиметься ратифікацією даного міжнародного пакту.

The Human CapybaraAs I was reading about the rise of masculinists and trad wives in Western countries:
"For years, these young women had defied conservative expectations simply by riding bicycles in public.
To them, it was proof that women could claim space in public life.
To the Taliban, it made them visible targets."
"Escaping Kabul tells the dramatic story of a secret international effort to get them out of the country."

Frantic 🇬🇧 + 🇪🇺So Farage wants to “strengthen women’s rights” with his Women and Motherhood Protection Act.
At the same time he defends the misogyny of party candidates and elected representatives as banter or lads pub talk.
This sounds like something out of 1984 crossed with something out of The Handmaid's Tale.

Yes!
It's 2026 and Colombia has just become the first Latin American country to approve nationwide legislation prohibiting female genital mutilation, or FGM.
After a two-year-long push, the bill was passed unanimously. It now awaits approval from Colombia's president, Gustavo Petro.
