VATICAN CONDEMNS UN ABORTION PILL DISTRIBUTION IN KOSOVO

VATICAN CITY, Apr 13 (LSN) - Monsignor Elio Sgreccia, vice president of the Pontifical Academy for Life, today condemned the UN's distribution of the abortion causing "morning after" pill to Kosovo refugees. Writing in the Italian Roman Catholic daily l'Avenire, the Catholic leader called the pill an "abortion technique" rather than a contraceptive. "The morning-after pill does not exist... This is an abortion," said the Bishop.
