On the day against violence against women, MEPs reminded that 6 EU countries have not yet ratified the Istanbul Convention, which protects women's rights.
These are - Bulgaria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Latvia and Lithuania. MEPs have once again called on states that have not ratified the convention to do so.
The European Commission will present early next year legislative proposals to combat violence against women.
