I don’t think reforms like that can happen until the Deep State leftists are exposed, arrested and put into some appropriate off-shore facility such as GITMO. They are all enemy combatants and can be detained indefinitely. But Trump needs to bide his time and wait for the right moment to make his move.
I think abortion is not a complex procedure needing expensive infrastructure (thus the coat hanger jokes). Tradition of doctors doing unofficial abortions and the wish of not leaving a paper trail for the women and avoiding taxes for the doctors (Labor is heavily taxed in Russia. Social security 30%, value added tax 18%, income tax 13%).
I am just sad that Russia, which is significantly poorer than the United States, has more will at its highest levels to try and save itself than west Europe or the United States.
Putin is lying in this interview and an anti-American slime Oliver Stone is an accomplish in delivering that lie. Putin is saying things his PR team thinks makes westerners like him. His actions are different from his sweet sounding words.
Good, however, he needs to ban abortion.
