Addis Ababa, March 11, 2015 (SPS) - The Permanent Representative to the AU and Ambassador in Ethiopia, Mr. Lamine Baali, has called for an objective assessment to the work done to put into action the international resolutions related to the protection and empowerment of women.
Addressing the 194th session of the African Union Peace and Security Council, held in Addis Ababa in the context of the commemoration of the International Women’s Day, the Saharawi ambassador stressed the need to make an objective assessment to the work done to implement the international resolutions related to the protection and empowerment of woman.
Mr. Lamine Baali underlined that women in the occupied part of Western Sahara are in dire need of the protection from the part of international community.
“Saharawi women are being humiliated and dragged to the ground on daily basis before the eyes of the United Nations and international community,” he pointed out, adding that the international resolutions on woman remain useless. (SPS)
