Bolsonaro Criticizes The Decision in Argentina and Says Abortion Will Never Be Approved in Brazil

President says he regrets 'deeply for the lives of the children'

Dec.31.2020 2:44PM

President Jair Bolsonaro (no party) criticized, on Wednesday (30), the decision of the Argentine Senate that gave women the legal right to decide on abortion.

"I deeply regret the lives of Argentine children, now subject to being cut out from their mothers' wombs with the consent of the State", published the Brazilian leader in his social networks. Bolsonaro also said that, as long as depending on his government, abortion will never be approved in the country.

Earlier on Wednesday, the Brazilian chancellor, Ernesto Araújo, also spoke out against the decision.

Without mentioning Argentina, the Minister of Foreign Relations stated that "Brazil will remain at the forefront of the pro-life movement and in the defense of the helpless, no matter how many countries legalize the barbarism of indiscriminate abortion, disguised as 'reproductive health' or 'social rights' ".

As soon as you put life in a hierarchy you've set some life as more worthy/valuable than other life & you just lost all your "pro-life" credibility.
