The S&D Group has called on the Polish Parliament to immediately stop working on proposals to widen the ban on abortion to include cases where a woman has been the victim of rape or incest. The call came during a visit by S&D MEPs to Warsaw to meet with constitutional affairs experts, women’s rights NGOs and to take part in a demonstration of thousands of Poles against the abortion proposals.
The delegation includes S&D Vice-President Josef Weidenholzer, Group spokesperson for Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, Birgit Sippel, spokesperson for Gender Equality, Marie Arena and Sylvia Kaufmann MEP.
