The Bishops of the European Union have reiterated their firm opposition ahead of the upcoming vote on 11 April in Brussels on whether to include the right to abortion in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
Decrying the proposition, and the imposing ideologies surrounding it, the European Bishops have reaffirmed that a human being, in any situation and at every stage of development, is always sacred and inviolable, reportsVatican News. The bishops warn that once this conviction disappears – as it would with the inclusion of the right to abortion – so do solid and lasting foundations for the defence of human rights.
