Pro-euthanasia militants try to sway French presidential candidates
It was to be expected, though the unsavory political opportunism of the pro-euthanasia has something of sickening.
As both contendants to the presidential elections are disputing a harsh campaign in a race too close to call, the ADMD (Association pour le Droit de Mourir dans la Dignité) launched a “white book” titled “End of life, a new law is indispensable”.
See the article below of Cécile Prieur, though her account is thoroughly partisan.
In that respect, whereas opinions are rather confused at the UMP, Union pour une Majorité Populaire of Nicolas Sarkozy, the Socialist party is known for supporting unreservedly the idea of legalizing euthanasia. The proposition appears clearly in its program and the Socialist candidate, Ségolène Royal said in August 2006 that she was “in full agreement with the project of [her] party” on euthanasia.
