EUTHANASIA LAW UNDER DISCUSSION [in Russia]:
The Federation Council has been preparing legislation that would legalize euthanasia in Russia, according to information received. If passed, the new law would allow people to request assisted suicide if sanctioned by a commission of doctors, lawyers and representatives from the prosecutor’s office.
For now only patients’ rights organizations have supported the measure, while experts said Russian society was not yet ready for such legislation.
[I wonder what is meant by ‘experts’?]
