"When I am told that I am a female politician, I look behind me to find out who this female politician is. I have convictions that are those that I recognize in women, namely: unity, patience, the protection of life, unity. If these qualities can be defended by all women, then I agree with you that women can help bring their particular way of seeing politics and even society in general. That is why we are fighting for gender parity, because we believe that women bring another appreciation and that balance can indeed come from the male and female perspective together. That is how life is conceived."
