Germany’s Merkel blasts Afghan marital law
German Chancellor Angela Merkel pressed Afghanistan’s president to review carefully a new law that critics say legalizes marital rape, a spokesman said Monday.
Merkel “stressed …that this law does not correspond with the government’s ideas and with her personal ideas regarding the equality of men and women,” Steg said.
