Jaaf describes Iraqi women’s situation as dramatic

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) Member of the parliament Human Rights Committee, MP Asuaq al-Jaaf, described the situation of the women in Iraq as tragic and disappointing.

Jaaf said in a statement received by IraqiNews.com on Thursday “The situation of the Iraqi women is dramatic, frustrating and does not meet the ambition where the women do not enjoy their rights guaranteed by the Iraqi constitution.”

“The Iraqi women celebrate the world Women Day in light of serious circumstances they live and great violations that cannot be ignored,” she added.

Jaaf called on “The political blocs and the ruling political parties to protect the women rights and prevent any abuses against them.”

She stressed that “The Iraqi women suffer systematic policy of political and social marginalization and exclusion, despite the constitution guarantees their humanitarian and political rights.”
