Medvedev Signs Pro-Life Bill for Russia

Russian President Medvedev Signs Pro-Life Bill on Abortion Risks | LifeNews.com: Russia has its first pro-life law since it fell under communist rule. The law is a reaction to the country's alarmingly high abortion rate, which has sparked an underpopulation crisis.

Thursday, President Dmitry Medvedev signed into law a measure that informed women of the risks associated with an abortion prior to her having one. Russia has some of the highest abortion rates in the world, with some women having as many as six or more abortions. The risks associated with abortion, such as increasing the risk of breast cancer or premature birth in subsequent pregnancies, need to be made known.
