Javier Milei's government has not decided to extend the legal protection of unborn life. However, he achieved a affirmative effect of fighting half-measures abortion. According to statistics, the number of infanticides has clearly declined in this South American country. Unfortunately, not to the minimum to which effective and enforced legal changes could lead.
Javier Milei has repeatedly expressed his reluctance to abortion – which he rightly considers morally unacceptable. That's what he said about infanticide during 1 of his run speeches:
– A kid in a woman's body is not her body. This makes abortion easier and worse by disparity of power towards a kid who has no tools to defend himself – noted the president of Argentina.
Despite this belief, politicians did not usage power to legally limit this criminal act. According to the Razonmasfe.com portal, the President's organization at the beginning of his government proposed a legislative proposal that assumed the pursuit of physicians and women guilty of infanticide. However, due to opposition from the public, it was not accepted.
The authorities have taken little ambitious measures to reduce abortion. The government decided to halt the distribution of abortion funds completely and liquidated state support for childicide institutions.
According to data provided by pro-abortion organizations between 2024 and 2025, the number of murders of unborn children in Argentina fell from 107 1000 to about 80 thousand, which means an improvement of 26 percent.
