Italian Socialists Demand Liberal Abortion Reform Threaten Government
Socialist party leader Francesco de Martino warned Premier Aldo Moro he may topple the minority Christian Democratic government to force a general election unless the abortion bill is liberalized. After a Tuesday meeting they remained far apart, with plans for further talks and a Thursday meeting with Communist Enrico Berlinguer. The coalition hinges on Socialist support, as Moro’s government lacks a majority in the Chamber of Deputies.
