Cuba’s National Assembly quietly approved euthanasia in a recent legislation update for its universal healthcare system. The final draft acknowledges the right to a dignified death, encompassing end-of-life decisions such as limiting therapeutic efforts and providing palliative care. Despite the lack of public debate and minimal coverage in state-run media, Dr. Alberto Roque, a bioethics expert, anticipates increased discussion as regulations are developed. Euthanasia, a contentious issue globally, remains opposed by many religions, with only a handful of countries permitting the practice, while others equate it to murder.
