Can an individual consciously decide to end their life while being protected by the law?

\nEtymologically, the word euthanasia comes from Greek, where “Eu” means good and “Thanatos” means dead. The term therefore means “good death” This term can then mean a consensual act of ending the life of an individual at the conscious and thoughtful request of the patient with the aim of no longer suffering and dying with dignity. \n\nNowadays, assisted suicide is legal in seven countries: \n

\r\n
• Holland, the very first!
\r\n
• Belgium in 2002
\r\n
• Luxembourg in 2009
\r\n
• Colombia in 2014
\r\n
• Canada in 2016
\r\n
• Spain in 2021
\r\n
• New Zealand 2021 but also in some states in Australia and the United States.
