Under the bill proposed by the Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania, a woman would be permitted to terminate pregnancy only if it posed threat to her life or health or if it resulted from criminal deeds. In such cases, an abortion would be allowed by week 12.
Currently, Lithuanian laws alow abortions until week 12 into pregnancy, with no additional conditions. Around 10,000 abortions are performed in the country every year.
Abortions are banned in Malta, Ireland, and Poland. The remaining EU member states have abortions deadline ranging from 10 to 18 weeks.
