Rape Definition Based on Consent in All EU Countries
The European Parliament is pushing for legislation that would establish a common definition of rape across all EU countries, explicitly based on the absence of consent. This initiative aims to standardize legal frameworks and improve victim protection. Parliament urges the Commission to propose such legislation, which would ensure a unified approach to combating sexual violence within the Union. This is a significant step towards harmonizing justice for survivors.
