Abortion Rate Down in Russia
Global Orthodox ^ | 4/3/22

"The rate of abortions in Russia steadily goes down, yet it remains rather high," said Deputy Minister of Public Health of the Russian Federation, Mr. Oleg Salagai.

"The incessant anti-abortion efforts are providing for the decline of the abortion rate in our country," said the Deputy Minister. In the course of the past year, it has been reduced by nearly 10%.

The Russian Orthodox Church devotes much energy to the defense of motherhood and childhood, to anti-abortion education and consulting. According to the Ministry of the Public Health official, in the year 2021, more than one in every five women involved in pre-abortion consulting reversed their intent and were enrolled in pre-natal care programs.

Interesting. And isn’t the left’s line “legal, safe, and rate”? Well if is declining due to better support and real help so that expectant mothers don’t seek to kill unborn children that’s a win for life!!!

“The incessant anti-abortion efforts are providing for the decline of the abortion rate in our country,”

And the media couldn’t even here, say ...

“The incessant pro-life efforts are providing for the decline of the abortion rate in our country,”

They are so over the ‘hell’ hill.

Any reduction is a blessing, but when you have the highest abortion rate of any country in the world, there's a lot of room for approval. As bad as the USA is, imagine being 250% higher. Such a tragedy.

Well, you have a quarter million fewer men in the country and many young women may be trying to get out.

This is from “The Global Orthodox”, the Russian Orthodox Church. They are an arm of the Russian government, and push Russian propaganda aimed at Eastern Orthodox Christians.
