Muere Emma Bonino, la activista radical del aborto a la que Francisco llamó una de las grandes de la Italia

Emma Bonino, the Italian activist known for her radical advocacy for abortion rights, has died. Pope Francis previously described her as one of the great figures of Italy.

Bonino was a central figure in changing Italian law during the 1970s. She described abortion as her only obsession and claimed to have aborted her own child. Throughout her career, she made controversial statements regarding medical ethics, such as comparing doctors who practice conscientious objection to a contagious disease and referring to patients like Eluana Englaro as vegetables.
