Deputies of the Samara Provincial Duma propose to make an abortion paid if it is not made for medical reasons or without the presence of an inevitable threat to a woman’s life. The corresponding amendment to Article 35 of the Law on Compulsory medical insurance is submitted to the State Duma. The bill is sent to the Health Committee.
Currently, artificial termination operations are carried out as part of the Basic MHI program. This means that every woman has the right to free abortion, regardless of the reasons that prompted her to this step. The authors of the bill emphasize that the amendment does not deprive women of the right to abortion without medical indications, but they will have to pay for it on their own.
The explanatory note among others gives religious arguments. "A significant part of the population of our country is negatively abortion without the availability of appropriate medical indications. Moreover, from the point of view of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, artificial abortion is an unconditional grave sin of detublines," the authors of the bill say.
According to the authors of the initiative, the situation is exacerbated by the fact that, by transferring the relevant insurance premiums to compulsory medical insurance funds, "insurers are not out of their owner will become accomplices in the production of artificial abortions, which to a great extent insults a significant part of believers."
Prayer standing against abortion in Moscow July 1, 2012:
On September 2, the head of the Duma Family Committee Elena Mizulina, in an interview with Izvestia, said that she was preparing amendments that tighten the legislation on abortion . She proposes to regulate the rules of abortion and introduce administrative responsibility for their violations.
Currently, the actions of doctors during the termination of pregnancy are regulated by the law "On the basics of protecting the health of citizens." However, liability for doctors for violations is not provided. “There is only criminal liability for“ doctors ”who carry out abortion without a medical education. That is, there are no rules, but there are no responsibility. Women do not explain their rights, do not talk about the consequences of abortion,” Mizulina said. “We propose to introduce administrative responsibility for violators in the form of fines.
Mizulin denied reports that it was planned to hold not only health workers, but also women to justice. To the question of where such assumptions come from, the deputy stated: “From where the information comes from oral sex or, for example, about the fact that I pushing orphans to suicide. People are trying to speak out on topics that they are not subdigree or even minimally tried to figure it out.”
Another initiative of Mizulina is associated with drug abortions. "Today, such pills can be bought at a pharmacy without a doctor's prescription. We offer to sell them only by prescription with an explanation of all consequences," Mizulina said. At the same time, she referred to the experience of the United States. According to her, after the adoption of the law on limiting the turnover of such drugs, the birth rate there increased by 20 percent.
