"In our country, every 32 hours, a woman dies for femicide," Macri warned, adding that "it is a reality that we must continue to change."

The head of state said that it was necessary to "end the violence forever and for that, we must start with the education we give to our children."

"We must all give the example because we are talking about a cross-cutting issue," added the president.
