Good afternoon, everyone!
Today i've read an article , it was about Latin America's fight to legalise abortion. I've chosen this aticle, because i'm learning Spanish, and i'm very interested in life of Spain and Latin America in general.
Now i would like to say a few words about this article.
"An estimated 6.5 million abortions take place across Latin America each year. Of 33 countries across Latin America and the Caribbean, only Cuba, Uruguay and Guyana permit elective abortions. Women also have the right to choose in Mexico City. Elsewhere, however, the right to an abortion is severely restricted, with terminations often permitted in cases of rape, or if the pregnancy will endanger the life of the mother. Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Suriname all have a complete ban on abortion.Activists consider Brazil a key battleground in the fight to decriminalise abortion in Latin America."
Well, i don't have one opinion about it, it's 50/50. On the one hand, fighting against legalizing abortion is not good, because there are a lot of situations when the abortion is the only way, and it should be legal.Women should have the right to choose. On the other hand, as it's said in the article: "Three-quarters of these procedures are unlawful, often performed in unsafe illegal clinics or at home". It's very bad and in this case, the government has to ban an abortion because it can be dangerous for women and their lives.
As i've said in my previous post, abortion is very tricky and deep question, so every person has his/her own point of view about it.
So share your opinion with me in comments:)
Thank you for reading my post:)

Julia, thanks for your sharing your opinion. Actually, it's not quite clear what it is. You quoted the article, but as they say "quotations do not speak for themselves. The thing is that different people have a different background, so they understand things in a different way. For this reason it's necessary to explain your position.
