Erdogan defends Turkey's withdrawal from violence against women treaty (reuters.com)

I'm against violence against women and men, of course, but what is the point of an international "violence against women treaty"? An arms control treaty says country A won't deploy weapon X if country B does not. But what policies country A has to combat violence against women should not depend on the policies of another country.
