    News: Argentine Senate Rejects Legal, Elective Abortion

    It´s neccesary to consider some aspects when we talk about the abortion. First of all, life itself as human right and not just talking about the baby but also the mother´s health.
    Thousands of women, most of them poor, are hospitalized each year for complications linked to unsafe abortions, the main cause of maternal death.
    Secondly, the freewill of the one making the choice. I think that people are born
    to learn how to be free and once that freedom is achieved comes with a huge resposability, get to the point of needing an abortion its a result of being irresponsible with that freedom, however, if the mother is unable to provide her child of optimal living conditions, it's unfair that the baby has to live paying for the parents' mistakes, so in this case the abortion
    should be considered as the last alternative to prevent that. Its important to take into account that legalizing abortion would save the life of many women; activists estimate that 3,000 women in Argentina have died of illegal abortions since 1983, so
    somebody got to take responsability and stop this chronical massacre

https://www.voanews.com/a/new-colombian-president-promises-corrections-to-peace-deal/4518269.html QUESTIONS 1. What is the main obstacle within this new to practice through parrhesia? 2. Concept 3. What is the consequence for the writter not telling the truth? 4. What can you do about it? 5. Do you think Duque is going to do everything that Uribe ask him to do? 6. Do you thin Duque is going to continue with de peace deal? I think that this topic it is very controversial, it depends on your political view, so I will try to think in an impartial point. Yes the majority of the Colombian people thinks that Duque is going to do everything that Uribe ask him to do (in any political point, even they agree with Uribe or not, people thinks that). I think that we have to wait and see how he is going to govern Colombia. And i hope that if he is going to make corrections to the deal peace (that i hope he does), those corrections will be for the better of the victims.

https://www.voanews.com/a/argentina-s-former-vp-boudou-convicted-of-corruption/4517781.html Opinion: In the actuality, politics is a very difficult topic and where the truth is never told completely. Here is a case were a politic steals from the people of Argentina thousands of money when he worked with Kitchener’s government. The stealing and hiding all this money is just a huge disappointment in the people that has their trust in them. There are just a few of politics that do or at least try to do things right and try to say the truth to the people. However, in the other hand there are a lot that just want to work in the government to steal and think in their wellbeing and not the countries. The truth in these cases is not complete and told to the people.  parrhesia in the goverment would be something so important for al the people that belong to the country because we would know what they are doing with our money and all their buissness. But it could be complicated w...
