“Today, March 8, we honor the struggles of the women’s rights movement. “Today we honor those who took us steps forward, who fought for a new humanity of justice and equality”, says the president of SYRIZA-PS, Alexis Tsipras, in a post on Facebook for the International Women’s Day.
The president of SYRIZA notes that “it is not a day of celebration, as long as the horror of gender-based violence and discrimination prevails in our society”, but “it is a day of constant reminder that patriarchy is still here”. He emphasizes that “in our country, in 2021 we counted 17 murders of women and now, at the beginning of 2022, we already count two murders of women” and points out: “The State must stop simply expressing its disgust and take initiatives.” “The time has come for the legal recognition of the term ‘genocide’,” he added.
“However, this is one of the many steps we have to take as a society,” Mr Tsipras said. and not acquis, in a world of multiple discrimination. “
The president of SYRIZA notes that “with a view to equal inclusion and participation”, he proposed, in view of the SYRIZA-PS congress, the establishment at all levels, bodies and organs of the party, of equal representation. “SYRIZA-PS will be the first party in the country to adopt absolute equality of 50% women – 50% men in its leadership,” he stressed.
He points out, however, that the struggle is daily, just as the debt is daily “against those who broke their silence, stifled fear and grew the #MeToo movement”, “to those who give their struggle against patriarchy and sexism”, ” to refugee women who leave with their children in the arms of the horrors of war, to come to European countries often confronted with racism and sexism “.
“Debt to those who fought and to those who will fight in the future: To change the social conditions. So that in the next count no one is missing. “So that in the next measurement, the woman is at the height she is entitled to”, concludes Mr. Tsipras.
