Danish municipality leaves circumcision up to parents

With about two-thirds majority, the Danish parliament rejected a proposal to make boys’ circumcision more difficult. On Tuesday, the final vote was the outcome of a long process that started with a citizens’ initiative in 2018.

Italian activist Marco Cappato again accompanied a patient with a death wish to Switzerland so that she could access to assisted suicide. Cappato reported himself to the police on Wednesday.

Organisation Save the Children requested the Norwegian government to start an investigation into the legality of boys’ circumcision. The organisation suggests, this violates human rights of boys. However, health minister Ingvild Kjerkol refuses to do so.
