Ankara- The talks on the 2025 budget of the Turkish Ministry of Labor and Social Security have started at the Parliamentary Planning and Budget Commission.

During the talks, Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) MPs put placards reading, “The Istanbul Convention keeps alive”, “Resign” and “Jin, Jiyan, Azadî” on the desks.

Before the talks, Republican People's Party (CHP) MPs Semra Dinçer and Sibel Suiçmez protested femicides by showing a shroud. The names of women victims of femicide were written on the shroud.

“We have started carrying the shroud in our bag. The names of women victims of femicide are written on it,” Sibel Dinçer said, addressing Mahinur Özdemir Göktaş, Turkish Minister of Family and Social Services.

“Here is not Taksim Square,” Mehmet Muş, the president of the commission, told the MPs protesting femicide.
