Pope Leo defends speaking out on France's end-of-life law
Original: Pope Leo defends entering political fray on France end-of-life law
Pope Leo has defended his decision to intervene in France's debate over its end-of-life legislation, saying the Church has a duty to speak on moral questions that affect society. His comments come as France considers expanding assisted dying, a move the pontiff and Catholic leaders have publicly opposed, drawing both support and criticism.
Why now: France's end-of-life law debate is live, and the Pope's intervention in a national political fight is unusual and contested.
