CWN Editor's Note: The president of Argentina’s Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem, has indicated that he would like attempt a repeal of the country’s permissive abortion law next year.
Menem, who is staunchly pro-life, admitted that the odds currently weight against a successful repeal campaign. “I don’t think we have the numbers,” he conceded.
