Emmanuel Macron estimated on Monday, May 5, a week before the arrival before the hemicycle of the National Assembly of the text creating a “right to help die”, that the debate could not “reduce” AO against life, but had to make the question of “smaller evil.”
The deputies approved in the committee the bill on Friday, after respectful but uncompromising debates on this sensitive issue. This bill comes from a bill sought by the Head of State that could not be carried out at the end due to the dissolution, in June, of the Assembly.
Asked by the Sunday Journal this weekend, Prime Minister François Bayrou said he was “spontaneously next to the attention and defense of life.” “But I am not blind. There are extreme situations, cases of suffering and despair that no one can ignore,” he added.
“A vertigo that affects each of us”
“It is a vertigo that touches each of us,” said the Head of State on Monday during a speech against the France Masones of France.
“But the debate, resolutely, cannot be reduced to the question of whether one is for life or against life, or if, on the one hand, there would be a humanism that would be worth the treatment and on the other abandonment to death simply, no,” he said.
“I’m afraid that sometimes, in our debates, things are rushed that forget thickness and great difficulty too, just think about the slightest evil.
He congratulated the Masons to bring “this ambition to make man the measure of the world, the free actor of his life, from birth to death.”
