France's Macron announces bill for assisted dying
Quick Glance: Macron announces bill for assisted dying
  • France could become the next European country to legalize euthanasia for the terminally ill, following a lengthy consultation with a committee of French citizens on 'active assistance to dying'.

  • Only adults with full control of their judgment, suffering from an incurable and life-threatening illness with unrelievable pain, will be able to 'ask to be helped to die,' Macron told La Croix and Liberation newspapers.

  • The bill entails prescribing a lethal substance that the patient can administer themselves or with the assistance of a third party if unable to do so physically, ensuring the patient's decision is supported by medical professionals and meets clear criteria to avoid the terms assisted suicide or euthanasia.

Quick Glance: Macron declares 2023 to be the year of French pension reform.
