Otabek YusupovOn October 22, on the sixth anniversary of the Constitutional Court's abortion ruling, actions under the slogan 'Red Card for Abortions' took place in 26 Polish cities and in London. Organizers demand full decriminalization of abortion and legalization of termination of pregnancy up to the 12th week, calling the two bills passed by the Sejm insufficient. Both documents, according to activists and media expectations, may be vetoed by President Karol Nawrocki.

The fate of the laws is unclear: a veto by President Nawrocki is likely. Even if they take effect, abortion on demand up to 12 weeks will remain banned — Poland will keep its status as one of the two most restrictive countries in the EU, along with Malta.
