Summary

Minister of Justice Annelies Verlinden (CD&V) has prepared a draft bill to extend the abortion term limit to 14 weeks in Belgium. Carine Vrancken of LUNA (Union of Dutch-speaking Abortion Centers) strongly criticizes the proposal, arguing that it is a compromise that will not solve the problem — women will still seek abortions abroad if the term is too short. She accuses policymakers of burying their heads in the sand and failing to align with medical realities and international standards.
