VOICED : Congreso argentino debatira por primera vez aborto legal

The Argentine Congress has begun discussions on decriminalizing abortion, a topic previously avoided due to the country's strong Catholic influence. The proposed law, backed by 71 legislators, aims to allow voluntary termination of pregnancy within the first 14 weeks. Currently, abortion in Argentina is only permitted in cases of rape or when the woman's life is at risk. The debate is framed as a public health issue by some, while others view it as an ethical and religious matter. Women's organizations see the debate as a significant achievement, though the outcome in the legislative process remains uncertain.
