Vatican’s top diplomat: European Union abortion ‘right’ a ‘radical attack’ on life

Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, says a recent vote by the European Parliament to call abortion a fundamental right is a “radical attack” on human life. “When life is attacked in such a radical way, you truly have to ask what kind of future we want to build,” Parolin comments came as June elections for the European Parliament when abortion rights are expected to be among the issues to be voted upon.
