Liechtenstein MPs Vote to Legalize Abortion Despite Threat of Veto The recent vote in Liechtenstein's parliament to legalize abortion during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy has sparked a heated debate within the country and across the European Union.
The proposed change, led by women from the left wing Free List party, would permit abortions, remove restrictions on providing information about the procedure, and make it eligible for health insurance.
However, Hereditary Prince Alois has indicated that he will veto the legislation. The Liechtenstein parliament's decision reflects the complex abortion debates raging across Europe.
