I want you to realize that the number of rapes Sweden submits to the UN is not comparable to the one Mauritania or even Germany submits to the UN:
1. Not every country submits a number at all.
2. Some countries submit a zero or a number very close to zero, do you actually believe that, too?
3. In some countries women fear that they cannot trust the police with such a sensitive subject and/or do not want to appear as victims.
4. In some countries women cannot trust the police and the police will not record their case and/or not believe them.
5. Even if a country has reported cases and trustworthy police, the recording may not take place according to the same rules.
