President Erdogan said that Turkey will come out of the Council of Europe Convention on combating violence against women and domestic violence (Istanbul Convention). According to the President of Turkey, the Convention undermines family. The output of the Ankara agreement means that the traditional women would be dangerous to stay in the country.
If the Convention abolished, women in Turkey will lose the only chance to defend themselves from violence. Local media report daily about the killings of wives or mistresses, kidnapping girls and holding them in bondage to “those humbled” and left to live with them”.

Despite this, Erdogan believes that Turkey should develop such agreements independently, and not to use the document of the Council of Europe, “translated texts”. About it reports the edition MK-Turkey, citing the Turkish press.
“I believe we are highly capable of developing the texts, which respect human dignity, put the family at the centre and which fit our social structure. Instead of translating, we will need to determine your bounds,” he said.
Conservatives in Turkey say that the Convention in its current form, undermines family bonds, their supports Erdogan.
“the Understanding, regulation or ideology that lay the dynamite in the Foundation of the family, are not lawful,” – said the Turkish leader.
