on the backside of getting this been candid, kenia, so that is the, every way every have seed in europe, an american policy for the latest news updates, debate and discussion. you can keep an eye on our website, r t dot com. thank you for joining us. they are naughty, international in ah, to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic, development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully very critical time. time to sit down and talk with

oh no, the supreme court of the united states is there session with rulings on a 2 of the most controversial issues in america, gun ownership, and abortion rights. however, were the decisions by the highest court in the land contradictory. while the case of guns it took away the rights of a state to decide the legislation regarding concealed carrying a firearms. but in regards to abortion said, it was a decision which should be left to the states. why the difference in today's a 1st edition, other $360.00 view, we're going to look at the issue of abortion rights here in america, with the latest ruling reversing. roe vs wade and making the procedure immediately

illegal in 13 states with more expected to follow. but abortion is not just a controversial issue in america, and we will not only look at how abortion is handled by other countries. but why many countries that like the united states have recently changed their policy? i'm sky now use and join me as we look at abortion and a global context on his inaugural episode of 360 view. whoa, abortion is one of the most controversial topics in american culture. oh, wow. wow. and the supreme court decision has fired up this, a divisive issue, leading to cause for a summer of rage. buildings into see were boarded up after the decision came down. riots erupted outside the supreme court, spilling into streets across america,

even shutting down highways. is it this reaction solely unique to america? now we want to take a look around the world at which countries have the most restrictive and most similar laws to america. when it comes to abortion, now, polling shows countries that differ on their opinions of abortion, depending on their culture and their religion. for this report, we want to go to our international correspondent. that's right, scottie, we're seen differences in opinion, an abortion across the world. but 1st, i want to start with current global abortion loss before the american federal supreme court drove drove versus wait, america had the most lenient abortion loss. if you look at the map created by the center for reproductive rights, you can see america's laws were comparable to most of europe, china, russia, columbia, argentina, turkey, and australia. this countries in blue have the fewest restrictions on abortion.

however, let's so mean into china. we're in the past 6 months, the chinese state council has issued guidelines to restrict the number of abortions . china is going through a fertility crisis as the one child policy has led to a male dominated population. now china solution is to restrict abortions and citizens can no longer abort the baby due to it gender. this all began with the one child policy were families wanting a boy to carry on the family name girls or either ill cared for or died shortly after birth or heated until school age. starting in the 1980s when doctors could predict the sex of the baby before he was born. the number of pre term abortion skyrocketed and has now led to a large male population. in china. in the more rural provinces were 2,

children were allowed per family to help on the farm. you see a higher number of girls you can see in the map, parts of china had by want to for rachel of girls, 2 boys. while the government has date this new sex, selective abortion prohibition. apple from world public opinion that org, fine, 67 percent of people in china re fair the government leave. these matters to that individual. half of the polt countries believe abortion decisions should be left up to that individual. this includes 6 countries where abortion is legal, france, great britain, the united states or crane bratia and china. not surprisingly, france and great britain came out with the highest number of in the beatles preferring the government take a hands off approach to abortion. restrictions. france allows abortion on demand up

to 16 weeks while britain allows abortion up to 24 weeks. or if the baby will be born with physical or mental handicaps, or will bring physical or mental harm to the mother. but britain also does not require doctors under duty to perform the surgery. meanwhile, 3 of the countries were the people, one less government involvement have highly restrictive loss. this includes pollen, mexico, and south korea. through, over the years, mexico's loss have been loosening and now restriction very at the state level. on the other hand, in countries like indonesia, thailand, iran, i, nigeria, people believe the government should restrict abortions, but only indonesia has an overwhelming 60 percent support of the government using criminal enforcement. while 84 percent of nigeria believes in restricting abortion,

only half of those 42 per cent in tor don't believe the government should have criminal enforcement. currently, nigeria only allows abortion to save a woman's life. while indonesia only allows abortion to save a woman's life, and in cases of rape or fetal impairment. however, when looking at the sample, these views have substantial differences. when you add religion, though, the catholic church is very clear on abortion views and has even turned down certain public figures from accepting communion due to their outspoken support of abortion. christian pollard showed the most liberal views. 65 percent are in favor of leaving the session to the individual and only 8 percent support criminal penalties. muslims have the highest percentage of supporting a government's restriction on abortion at 59 percent with 31 percent in favor of

the government enacting criminal punishment to enforce abortion restrictions. according to the world public opinion poll, there were no significant differences of opinion in their find is between men and women in the study for 360 view and books and the so thank you for that report. now in a welcome, in worry, riling to an attorney and legal and us worry. thank you so much for joining us on this. an initial show. thank you for having me. it's an honor to be your 1st guess . well, let's talk about this because how has the supreme court decision really, how is it already impacted the states across the country? well, it's already impacted a number of states because some of them have passed. what we typically refer to as trigger laws. meaning that when an event takes place, it triggers the law in motion. so with the anticipation of this ruling, a number of states pass laws that said, if row were to be overturned, that abortion would either be illegal or restricted in certain ways in those

particular states. and with the dots decision coming out last week, that was in fact the event that they were referring to that would trigger those laws going into effect. so we already have seen a number of states. the law has changed or certain other states that never repealed old abortion laws. for example, wisconsin had an $849.00 law bidding portion on the books that was never appealed. just wasn't in force while row was supreme court precedent. so that's really what we've seen is that these trigger laws are either already going to affect or have a timeline where they will be going into effect soon and worry. i found it interesting. these trigger laws were not just passed within this latest legislation . it was a years 5 years, 6 years, 7 years. and a lot of these people did this is campaign promises system for fil, a pro life promise. think he ro versus wade would never be overturned. and here we are. and those laws are going to an effect, but there are some state judges who are temporarily blocking these abortion bands

in some of these states. now is this legal with the supreme court who is supposed to be obviously the highest court of the lands their decision? and how do you see this playing out? well, i think the short answer your question is that it's complicated. so in many cases, the types of arguments that we're seeing. so louisiana, for example, the trigger law and not state was state. but the reason was because the law was unconstitutionally vague. the plaintiffs there argued that there were a number of had conflicting provisions. so it was hard to comply with the law until those ambiguities will resolve, so not sense. yes, it's legal, but it probably does nothing more than by time. while state legislators who are obviously very passionate about their pro life views will respond to what the perceived ambiguities are. the court decision comes out. in contrast, in utah, for example, the plaintiffs there have argued that even though there is not a national constitutional rights abortion,

that utah state constitution reserves that right. so the state constitutions very, in terms of what their language as specifically says. so that will really vary from state to state in terms of what those specific state constitution say. so for example, in colorado and they didn't include in their state constitution a legal right to abortion, that most states have not done that. but how we interpret things like a right to privacy protection, that is going to be an issue in a lot of these cases. so at this point, in terms of the lawsuits that we have seen, yes, they are legal and it's oftentimes when we have a big precedent like this, the changes the legal landscape, the question becomes not what is legal and what is not. what does the implementation look like in figuring out the details of the implementation can get quite complicated. so that's what we're starting to see now with some of these state court decisions. which when you realize that the supreme court is just based on, it's not necessarily on the issue of abortion, but on the 10th amendment. this is exactly how it's supposed to be playing out

according to constitution. each individual state making the rules for their land if they have not already. but now we are hearing this pro, abortion is call for a summer of rage. you saw that initially. we even see that building up to the decision from a democratic leaders to a video of a pro lifer who was actually beaten and rushed to the hospital all by a group of antique members. should this behavior be condemned, especially by leaders of the democratic party, who are obviously upset with the is it? well, i certainly think that the behavior should be condemned. i think that violence should be condemned in pretty much all instances. and over the past couple of years, we've seen some conflict between what constitutes a protest, obviously there's a constitutional right to protest. and when that protest crosses that line towards violence, and we don't want to promote violence in anna, it's certainly i think leadership starts from the top. so you can certainly have

your opinion. you could be angry, you could disagree with that decision. that is absolutely you're right. but i think when you start in flipping violence, injuring other citizens in inflicting damage on property, that's the thing that are politicians on all sides, i think should be condemning regardless of circumstance. so as i think so, and yet you're not hearing it very much coming out from, in fact you've heard a lot of them in the streets, actually encouraging people to take this route. like i said, peaceful, protest protected by the constitution. but this violence is something that i only see as recently becoming an answer for when you disagree with something, you actually take the violence into damage and property. but another argument that's come out for pro abortion is this idea of climate change. you know, the fact that they, we have this overpopulated world studies have shown that a child is one of the worst possible things you can do to the environment. we're not just talking about in your own home that we know a child can work with in 5 it. we're actually talking on the bigger picture. you know, when a child is a big, big deal, how do you think this push towards

a greener future has actually impacted possible changes in abortion policy, which is obviously to limit the amount of children that are able to be born. well 1st i just want to say that as a mother toddler, yes, i can confirm that destroy your own home in a matter of minutes. but to do it your bigger question about environmental policy. i think that that's certainly a factor and people who are supportive of reads to abortion. they want to appeal to people in any manner that will get them to support their side. and that's true of any policy argument. so people are not receptive to the traditional arguments about abortion, perhaps they'll be receptive to this is green, our planet argument. with that being said, i don't know how much of a as factor that truly is, because i think that we've seen people who hold these beliefs, they've been pretty steadfast in their beliefs even before there is this push for

greener climate. there are many people who feel that, you know, this is a right bodily autonomy and while i think that this talk of climate change certainly adds to it, i don't think that it's necessarily a game changer. i think that even if that argument were off the table, we would still be seeing a lot of what we would be seeing today in terms of the arguments for people who are in favor of abortion. so, i mean, yes, i think it's a factor, but i don't think it's a game changer. ok, so one other factor that's come out because no one ever expected this to happen. companies almost immediately are now offering to pay for travel. all this to other states for their employees to get abortions. i have to tell you the working female, my red flags went up on this. and because obviously is this because they just feel bad. they want to take care of their employees. or is it actually because it's cheaper for a government, for a, an employee to, for an employer to actually pay for the employee to have an abortion, rather than actually offer decent maternity paternity leave or any sort of program

that makes it a better working environment for working mothers like yourself. well, i think we could certainly have another conversation about what adequate maternity leave looks like. we can do a whole other show about that. so i get bogged down in the details. there are well economics are probably a factor for some companies. i think the bigger factor is we've really seen over the past couple years companies waiting into the culture war in a way that they have not in the years previously. and you look at what just happened with, with disney in florida. and whereas before, companies didn't want to offend any potential customers, regardless of, of issues with social climate has change, the culture wars have escalated and there is next that taishan i think, particularly with the younger gen, see that companies take a stance on some of these issues. and so i think we're seeing that more and more. i mean, really i think that the death of george floyd was a turning point in terms of companies waiting into the culture work. so i think

that this is just, you know, not no exception, that they're continuing to make statements on cultural issues where they would not have before. and, and this is companies, i think, particularly companies who perhaps are operating in blue or states and want to appeal to the population in the workforce. they're, that's, that's a stance that they're, they're going to take. so, i mean, again, i think the economics certainly play a factor. we think bigger pictures just of corporate landscape has changed and we now see. ready businesses take stances on controversial issues when that's not something that they did even just a few years ago. well, obviously things are changing and worry. i appreciate you joining us in lending your legal insight. thanks for joining us. reading is adult brandy or star break in ad for is we're going to give you more of the a $360.00 view on abortion more ah,

do more. so we're show you the most all who are so full is you do with russia, is the aggression no good for answer, much about or by me. any key was, were due to me, delusions, lowball, hero. we have any quality for russians. can all we gotta do is just feed them over the head and just tell them the right way to live near is going to do with a we did it on these clear the with a boy with i'm with a don't was a who i can see it is you gave in full, then press the list, big st. louis, i'll stick with one of my gloves with national has been venues to be a for the new sure wound juniors with friends with

our season at the washer. who works with the wash with ah, the united states in many western countries, letting us title of the rationality. and i basically called what the u. s. is, you know, the u. s. position visa be sanctioned as a kind of mania. they keep repeating the same actions, and i think they're doing this because they want to show that they still rule the world. but in fact, every, especially against russia, every sanction they have imposed, has shown as underlined how much they don't food. ah ah,

welcome back to you at 360 view. i'm your host, scotty. now hughes. now america was founded as a country with the right to choose your religion. but it has historically been founded mainly on christian views. as the country has progressed, these religious views have been pushed out of politics, schools in the home. and how do different religions integrating and these social pushed to wipe out religious influence? change a populations view on religion? well, we want to bring in political act was at shaneka lead. welcome, and thank you for joining us all the way from london. thank you so much for having me. i'm very excited. ok. so located there in the u. k, you have a lot of the same freedoms in england as americans when it comes to the freedom of expression. would it be strange to see people violently protesting the way they are right now considering the roe vs wade decision? i think on a c, i'm abortion has been legal in the u. k. since about 1967. and you can actually

still have an abortion here up to i believe 23 weeks into pregnancy. and abortions can only be performed up later on in the stage. then if there is some sort of significant risk to the mother's life, or if there's a fatal fetal abnormality that's detected. but i don't think, you know, after the roe v wade decision, i think that there has been a lot of misleading just misconception throughout, especially in my generation. i think a lot of people love to jump on the bandwagon of whatever's trending on social media and whatever it is without actually having any sort of basis and understanding and knowledge of this is because this is such a complex issue at the end of the day and it's a very nuanced issue, but i don't think there hasn't been protests that i know of yet. but you know, who knows, who knows has just started. well as we were talking about before,

even during the break it or whatever starts in the u. k. usually funnels across the u. s. a few weeks later, this started, this argument has started mainly because probably it's an election year in the united states. you'll see it in a few weeks when parliament of parliament decides to take it up. and as you point out, england like america and most of europe really does have some very lacks abortion laws, termination of other reg, nancy is up to those 24 weeks or as it would harm the mother or the child who could possibly be born with a physical or mental disability, a lot of this debate actually came from post. what happened up until the moment of life was what were the debate coming from? now i also ask you about the muslim community, because here a lot of our laws are based off of judeo christian believes. but how does the muslim community actually feel about abortion laws in the u. k. and how do you actually approach it from the muslim perspective? so, you know, as a general consensus, i think muslims view abortion as her arm and it's unlawful and it's forbidden and islam. however, there are

a few exceptions. and i think islam is one of those religions that take, that takes the golden mean, if i can say when it comes to this issue. and by which, i mean, basically that it takes the middle path and says that, you know, abortion is permissible up to a certain stage of the pregnancy. and most islamic scholars, i think, would agree that the termination of a pregnancy for fetal anomalies is allowed before installment. and i'll tell you what i mean by that. but i think you're, however, after $120.00 days, abortion is only deemed acceptable if the pregnancy poses any exceeding danger to the mother, or if the fetus is actually examined, to have any sort of abnormality or will, or caught, or, or, you know, if it's possible that it will have any sort of severe disability. but you know, what's really interesting is that even within each school of islamic thought, there is honestly a lot of variance, a lot of disagreement on abortion. and there is

a lot of dispute about which circumstances really qualify as an acceptable reason. and this difference, i think of opinion is based on which stage of pregnancy do scholars think that the soul really answers the embryo? so you know, to really answer your question. i think muslims, in today's progressive age have such her have a much more, i think the liberal approach to abortion and the laws in the u. k. tend to mirror that ideology. so, you know, especially especially for the muslim youth that are heavily, heavily influenced by social media and just pop culture. so on a surface level, honestly, i don't think it's a very polarizing issue within the muslim community, because i think we'll come from the very ethical background that has instilled a basic moral code within each of us. so in bangladesh, for example, where i'm from, the general consensus among an overwhelming majority of the population will always align more with them cuz i've to principals. if that makes sense,

now you are current a london resident. but as you mentioned, you're from bangladesh, which borders indian have knowledge of this culture and india at work. courts have been perceived as a very progressive. more than 70 percent of the abortions in india are because of unplanned pregnancies or health complications. and the legally admissible reasons, even then a quarter of them actually take place at home, not necessarily in a facility. how much could a restrictive abortion along the u. s. actually have this ripple effect on access is to services, information choice and resources for abortions in india you've been considering they're already very progressive. can i 1st address that there actually are no restrictive abortion laws in the u. s. united ticket that you're obviously referring to. the so called restrictions that have resulted from overturning of roe v wade or the harpy laws those, those were in place even before rose roe vs wade. if you could, your heartbeat and abortion was not certain states had those, those were i'm talking about the restrictions that have been in the u. s. right?

you're right, so you know, i just wanted to address that the roe v wade thing is like the general consensus about roe v wade and what people are deeming it to mean is a complete fallacy. because i think there's a massive misconception because abortion hasn't been bound in the us. right. and the reason why roe v wade, i think was overturned, is because abortion rights were never part of the constitution in the 1st place. so now goes back to obviously each individual state on a case by case circumstance, which means abortion is still act accessible in almost every single state. but this is actually a win for both sides. whether you are pro life, whether your pro choice am cecily, a big win, if you, if you believe in democracy. but secondly, i think abortion laws may have a ripple effect in india. but only i think in the metropolitan city areas where people have, you know, become more progressive or they could because because of western ideologies and particularly the american way of life, which is obviously now become like

a standard for living amongst a lot of people who live in the cities, but in the rural areas you'll find that, you know, there is, and i sorry, in the rural areas where most of india and the population reside. they're actually very entrenched in ancient religious morals and values and principles that so, you know, there isn't always, will be a very strong cultural identity when it comes to food. the, for the vast majority of the population, you know, at tianna kelly. thank you so much for joining us on this very controversial issue and kind of giving us a little perspective of how not only people knew k, but as well as how the influences might have on other countries. policies such as india, thanks for joining us. thank you so much gantski head you know the debate regarding abortion not only here in the united states, but around the world is a combination of environmental and theological influence, which result in government policy. in fact, i cannot think of

a controversial health topic whose legislation is a less to do with science and more about the country's a religious perspective than abortion. maybe this is why we're seeing such radical changes these days. but science doesn't come back into play in regard to preventive options. and will those now become more of a priority to have access to and by who and let us remember mankind to can only continue if they are fruitful and they multiply. therefore, the challenge for all should be not to figure out how to prevent life rather how to create a world which encourages a good life. i'm sky now. hughes, giving you the $360.00 view of today's news from around the world. thank you for watching. ah ah

with 1000 as well. wow. do you easy while friendly? ah. yeah. for unit one slide yes, south. yeah. thrashing with a new dock. awesome voice. now watch done for me at that i'll pull up my pizza is emma? yeah. pull video from she'll let me just kim's room. she thought, can you say a yes, my thought or jane in that again? do you watch in pretty up my be

a lot about this morning. esther search financially with the fact that i'm here today with our delegation to review our co operation to see how we can take it forward to create a long term sustainable basis. i think say is most of all russia and india focused on energy stability as well. as a multi polar approach to security at moscow host, cindy is foreign minister for key tools. americans take to the poll for crucial mid term elections with the countries economic crisis. the main concern for many, well, critics say the ruling democrats on more worried about dishing out the big bugs to ukraine.
