Enough […] The post OPINION: The Obsession with Mutharika’s Health is Absurd—Let the Man Be appeared first on Malawi Nyasa Times - News from Malawi about Malawi.

However, in the aftermath of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster and the 2011 catastrophe in Fukushima, nuclear energy has become highly controversial. While Member States choose whether to include nuclear power in their energy mix, EU legislation aims at improving the safety standards of nuclear power stations and ensuring that nuclear waste is safely handled and disposed of.

Violence against women is a violation of human rights and a serious form of discrimination against women. It takes many forms and, according to survey data, affects one third of women in the EU. Such violence has a major impact on victims and imposes a significant cost burden on society. International documents adopted by the United Nations and Council of Europe, including the latter's 'Istanbul Convention', to which the EU acceded in 2023, set the normative framework for combating violence against women. The EU has embodied these international norms in its legislation and policies. The EU has deployed all the tools at its disposal to combat this phenomenon. It has adopted specific legislation focused on violence against women and has used legislation on other related subjects to address this type of violence. It has funded multiple programmes at EU and international level and has organised exchanges of good practice among its Member States. Although there are similarities between national policies to combat violence against women, the Member States have adopted different approaches. Parliament has been a strong supporter of EU action in the area. It has repeatedly called on the Commission and Member States to adopt legislative and non-legislative measures to combat violence against women, and has debated the multiple forms of this violence in its resolutions. This is a further update in a series of EPRS briefings on the matter dating back to February 2014. The most recent previous edition was from 2022. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
