“Lifeless there is no freedom, there are no rights, there is no future”
In Mendoza, the concentration took place in San Martín and Pedestrian Sarmiento, and was headed by the vice governor of the province, Hebe Casado. The column went to the Legislature, where an application was read to the authorities.
The provincial official also pronounced on the subject in her X account: “I think, with total conviction, that there is no more basic right than to be born. Because without life, there is no freedom, there are no rights, there is no future,” he wrote in his X account.
“Defending the one who cannot defend himself should not bother anyone. It is the minimum. It is a human, ethical and also political commitment,” he considered, calling for life from the beginning, with “an integral look on each reality.”
The call was also massive in the city of Salta, in the North Argentina, where protesters, with celestial and white songs and flags, asked the State to protect the children to be born.
Abortion is “a exchange in which someone loses”
In Resistencia (Chaco) the march began in the 25 de Mayo Square, asking for the repeal of the Voluntary Interruption Law of Pregnancy (IVE). Within that framework, Clelia Ávila, a member of the movement for life and family, said: “We will continue with the necessary measures for the Congress to treat the repeal project,” he says South American Radio.
Dr. Horacio Goicochea, a surgeon and former provincial deputy, said: “The right to interrupt pregnancy as an extension of rights was misunderstood, when in reality it is a exchange in which someone loses, and that is the child to be born.”
Milei repeals the law
In San Rafael (Mendoza), protesters walked from km 0 to the monument to Mother Teresa de Calcutta, with a firm request: “Milei repeals the law.”
Flavio Arroyo, a member of the Family Problem Research Center (CIDEPROF) thanked those who participated in the march and asked “that President Milei fulfills his campaign promise, where he told us that he defended life. Now we want that, that the law of abortion is repealed in Argentina.”
“We want legal and clandestine abortion to end. We defend the baby who dies in abortion and also that poor mother who has to reach that circumstance of aborting because he does not have or does not know how to take care of it, who does not find help in his family or in the same society,” he told Diario Info already.
In addition, beginning the year of legislative elections, recalled the importance of having legislators who defend this position.
The national government, from the X account of the Casa Rosada, adhered to the commemoration of Children’s Day to be born, making “a call to the defense of human life from its conception” and reaffirming that “life always expires death.”
