Quick Glance: Italian PM Giorgia Meloni vows to crack down surrogacy, calls it ‘inhuman’ practice
  • Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has expressed her opposition to surrogacy, deeming it an 'inhuman' practice that should incur harsher penalties.

  • Her views on surrogacy align with those of the Catholic Church, which argues that the practice violates the integrity of the child and the woman.

  • The move against surrogacy is perceived as a blow to the rights of LGBTQ+ communities in Italy, where same-sex marriages are not allowed under the influence of the Catholic Church.

  • PM Meloni has pledged to address the country's declining birth rates by implementing women-friendly policies such as improving child care and other support for working women.
