However, most parliamentary groups allowed a free vote. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The measure faced a complicated legislative path that began in 2022 but was stalled by early elections in 2024. Vautrin described the approved text as \u201ca French approach, strict and regulated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lawmakers also unanimously passed a separate bill, 560 votes in favor, guaranteeing access to palliative care for all patients in need, regardless of the euthanasia debate. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1906076\" style=\"width:785px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-430x286.webp 430w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173-1200x800.webp 1200w, https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-173.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposed euthanasia law has drawn criticism from both sides: advocates say it imposes excessive hurdles, while opponents argue it goes too far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, many lawmakers backing the bill consider it a necessary improvement over the current legal vacuum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is only the beginning,\u201d Vautrin said, emphasizing the need for dialogue in the upcoming Senate debates.
