Puerto Rico recognises unborn babies as 'natural persons' from moment of conception

Puerto Rico has signed Senate Bill 504 into law, recognising unborn babies as natural persons from the moment of conception, RT reported. US-based organisation National Right to Life (NRL) hailed the legislation as a "landmark achievement," and declared it a "clear and courageous recognition of preborn babies as persons". "It reflects a deep respect for life," NRL said.
