At the "Women on the Front" conference, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam repeated slogans about empowering and protecting women, without offering practical solutions. A government that is unable to guarantee the most basic social rights, and continues to burden popular groups with the costs of crises, cannot present itself as protecting women. What is marketed as empowerment is nothing more than cosmetic rhetoric for a policy that keeps wealth in the hands of its owners, leaving women, workers and refugees paying the price.
