BY LifeSiteNews.com MOSCOW, Feb 16, 2001 (LSN.ca) - The introduction of abortion in Eastern Europe under the communist regimes has remained a blight in the East despite the crumbling of the walls separating the East from the West. A report from the World Health Organization, carried in the International Herald Tribune, indicates that Russian women in 2000 registered 1,696 abortions per 1,000 births, down only some 300 from 1990. The “data indicate that Russia and Central-Eastern Europe, with roughly 10 percent of the global population, account for up to a third of the 30 million to 40 million abortions registered annually around the world,” says the report.
