Paris: France on Friday included the right to abortion in its constitution. This is a powerful message of support for women's rights on International Women's Day. Justice Minister Eric Dupont-Moretti used a 19th-century printing press to seal the amendment to the French Constitution in a special ceremony. France has become the first country to explicitly guarantee the right to abortion in its national charter. Earlier this week, French lawmakers approved it with an overwhelming majority.
