Translated by me from Agenda Veracruz: Analisis Crítico de las Noticias de Veracruz by Thomas Quinteo Buendia
The Secretary General of the Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD), Hortensia Aragón, called "incongruent" the declaration of the governor of Veracruz, Fidel Herrera Beltrán, that he is "against abortion" and especially his notice that he would send a reform inititiative against abortion to the Congress of the Union (Veracruz legislature).
The leader of the party Sol Azteca said that Fidel Herrerra's reading of the situation will have national repurcussions since in Veracruz a diversity of organizations "are in agreement that women have freedom over their bodies and that they can decide whether or not to have an abortion or not when they find themselves pregnant."
