metadata.value: The article presents the results of a study of the criminal law of certain countries in Europe,
  North America, the CIS and the Baltic countries, establishing responsibility for various
  acts related to the unlawful termination of pregnancy (abortion). The choice of the respective
  countries is determined by the development of their criminal legislation (countries of
  Europe and North America), as well as the unified historical experience and legal similarity
  of the relevant norms (CIS member states and the Baltic countries). At present, it is necessary to strengthen the legal protection of the life and health of women (reproductive, primarily)
  in order to improve the demographic situation in the Russian Federation. One of the directions
  of such strengthening should be to increase the effectiveness of criminal law measures
  ensuring the protection of the corresponding benefits from criminal assaults associated with
  unlawful termination of pregnancy. A positive role in this direction is played by the positive
  foreign experience in countering such criminal phenomena, which should be actively used in
  the development of amendments to Russian criminal law. The principal feature of the criminal
  legislation of the countries under consideration is, first of all, the responsibility for various
  forms of unlawful termination of pregnancy (abortion) associated with the violation of the
  conditions and safety requirements of its conduct, and not only for one of its types as in the
  Russian criminal law, where it is established only the responsibility of a person who does not
  have a higher medical education of the corresponding profile, which positively distinguishes
  him from the Russian one. The presence in the criminal legislation of the countries under
  consideration of a significant number of various crimes related to the unlawful conduct of an
  artificial termination of pregnancy (abortion) (“self-abortion,” facilitating abortion, inducing
  abortion, failure to notify about abortion, condoning abortion, etc.) is caused, first of all, by
  the presence of a rather “narrow” list of legal grounds for conducting such a medical intervention.
  This in turn is a manifestation of the restriction of a woman’s freedom in matters of
  interrupting pregnancy.
