This Wednesday, around 4 a.m., the Argentine Senate made the Voluntary Pregnancy Interruption bill a law, becoming the third country in South America to permtir abortion without any restrictions. This milestone was celebrated by both Argentine and international sectors. But, on the other hand, it was also repudiated, as in the Paraguayan Chamber of Deputies or by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.
– I deeply regret pelas vidas das criancaas argentinas, agora subjectitas a serem ceifadas no ventre de suas m’s com anu’ncia do Estado. Not that relying on mim e do meu governo, or abortion jamais will be approved on its own. We’ll be ready to protect two innocents alive! — Jair M. Bolsonaro (@jairbolsonaro)

“I deeply regret the lives of Argentine children, now subject to being cut into their mothers’ wombs with the consent of the state,” the brazilian representative wrote. “To the extent that it depends on me and my government, abortion will never be approved in our soil. We will always fight to protect the lives of the innocent!” Immediately, many users criticized Bolsonaro for his management and management of the pandemic in his country, which today accounts for more than 193,000 fatalities since COVID-19 arrived in Brazil.
