Abortion in France: an acquired but constantly evolving right

\n\n

In France, theabortion has been a right since the Veil law of 1975. Since then it has continued to evolve to adapt to the reality of women's lives.

Macron's fight for the European consecration of abortion

\n\n

Despite the progress made in France, Macron is aware that many European countries still have restrictive laws onabortion. Some nations, like Poland and Malta, have very strict laws that endanger women's lives and health.

\n\n

As part of his presidency of the Council of the European Union, President Macron expressed his desire to develop these laws at the European level. He wants to makeabortion, a fundamental right of women, recognized and protected in Europe.

What are the challenges of this European consecration of abortion?

\n\n

A European consecration of abortion could make access to abortion safer and more equitable for all women in the European Union. Repressive anti-abortion laws often force women to resort to clandestine abortions, which can be dangerous.

\n\n

Additionally, there could be a reduction in social stigma around abortion, contributing to a more equal society. However, Macron will face significant opposition from those who oppose expanding abortion rights.

\n\n

In conclusion, the president Macron is clearly determined to advance the rights ofabortion beyond France. However, it remains to be seen how he will achieve this ambition in the complex European political and social context.
