Parliament in Poland approves law that relaxes abortion rules, but president can still veto it

The Polish parliament has passed two proposals to ease strict abortion laws, but President Karol Nawrocki may veto them. The initiatives, supported by leftist and centrist parties, include legalizing assistance for voluntary abortions and restoring access in cases of severe fetal abnormalities. Poland's abortion laws are among the strictest in Europe, allowing abortion only in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the woman's life. The proposals were narrowly approved, with the president's potential veto looming due to his ties to the conservative party responsible for the stricter regulations.
