That is why Turkey has given its strong support to projects aimed at ensuring increased participation by women in all areas of social and political life. In other words, we believe that the empowerment of women in its entirety should be at the core of all our efforts. In that respect, let me cite our approach in Afghanistan. We continue to support various programmes devoted to empowering women in politics and governance, while undertaking many other projects aimed at providing equal and modern education opportunities to girls.
