Luxembourg, Luxembourg, Mar 19, 2009 / 12:04 pm
The Parliament of Luxemburg approved a law Tuesday legalizing euthanasia by a vote of 30-26, after limiting the powers of the Grand Duke Henry I, who had refused to sanction the measure for reasons of consciences.
Luxemburg has thus become the third EU country to enshrine euthanasia for the terminally ill in its law.
