The General Assembly of Congress approved the agreement to commemorate the “unborn day” this Tuesday. On March 25, 77 votes for “children” of importance and national interests, 7 votes against, 20 votes for abstention The controversy was not without controversial interventions, such as the intervention of the House of Representatives of Popular Action Pedro Martínez, who addressed women activists and claimed that children caused by rape could cure the aftermath of the rapist.

They would have suffered another abuse called abortion. I don't think so. A boy can hurt many girls with those wounds, scars, and the aftermath left by rapists, but no one thinks they have the right to take the life of a child who is conceived in the womb of his mother. We ask women activists to save lives. Martinez said in his speech.

baby shower plot

On the other hand, the official House of Representatives Waldemar Cerrón considered that the declaration “The Day of the Unborn Child” had a precedent in the baby shower held by the new generation.

Now the generation got together and had a 'baby shower' . Already in society today it is institutionalized and only formal is lacking. (...) It is necessary to understand that the life of a new being means preserving the existence of human beings. No one would want the development cycle to be interrupted. Imagine that if they had made a decision with us, we would not be here.” Representative of the House of Representatives Libre, Peru, said.

Sometimes mothers feel lonely and make wrong decisions when the family does not know that a new existence is approaching. On the other hand, on the day of the unborn child, the family can grow more. Let's continue to preserve the human being, not destroying the family.” He added.

Motion rejects NGOs

The declaration of national interest on the anniversary means “unborn child” for every human being from the moment of conception.

In addition , this consent raises a denial of interference and inclusion by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other associations that promote abortion through a campaign “unconstitutional, illegal and threatening the life of the fetus”, putting life at risk”.

It also urges the administration to promote the establishment and implementation of public policies to safeguard the life of the fetus and raise awareness, support and comprehensive protection for pregnant women and fetuses.

This movement was supported by Alejandro Muñate Barrios (popular renewal). “The state creates support programs for women who suffer various kinds of adversity during pregnancy. That is why Peru calls humans' products' in the womb and urges them to never dehumanize themselves.” He said.

They were against

Congressmen Ruth Luke (together for Peru) and Flor Pablo (Purple Party) opposed this movement because they thought that the rights of the unborn child were used politically to curb debates; on the topic of sexual rights and reproductive and inclusive sex education.

I want to emphasize that a group of congressmen who advocate gender equality have presented a legislative initiative on the issue of abortion caused by rape. Because in our country there are women and girls who are accused of suffering unwanted motherhood. ,” said Ruth Luke.
