Left-wing group in Spain voices support for right to life

.- The left-wing political group, Solidarity, in Spain has issued a press release explaining that its leftist ideology has led it to defend the right to life of the unborn from conception to natural death, in clear opposition to abortion.

In its statement, Solidarity said, "We are socialists and we oppose abortion and its legalization. We oppose all attacks on life: the death penalty, torture, hunger, the arms race, war, slavery."

The group called abortion "an odious act of violence carried out against the unborn and against mothers."

The statement later indicated that "the womb of the mother should be the most protected place in nature. Society must also protect children and mothers before and after birth."

One of the members of the group, Jesus Berenger, 41, explained, "I am part of the left and the left before used to defend life, the weakest, but now the parties are driven by their interests. I defend the dignity of the person. I am against hunger, exploitation and abortion, which is murder."
