The director of the Moscow Patriarchate’s commission on family matters, protection of motherhood and childhood, Maria Studenikina, this week again called for the designation of abortion as a death of a human.
She added that the number of abortions in the vast country should be included in public health statistics for mortality in Russia.
As such, the commission director has sent a relevant letter on the matter to Russian Federation Prime Minister Mikhail Mishu-stin.
