After months of hesitation and consultations, Emmanuel Macron announced this Sunday his wish to outline the contours of his end-of-life bill by defining it as “assisted dying”.

The term convinces some listeners in the show “Pascal Praud et vous”, every day from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., like Mehdi.

He explains that this term “unblocks the current situation”.

Emmanuel Macron announced on Sunday, in an interview with our colleagues at 

La Croix

 and 

Libération

 , that a bill opening "assisted dying" under "strict conditions" would be presented in April to the Council of Ministers.

This wish from the President of the Republic delights listeners on the show 

Pascal Praud and you

 like Mehdi, who lost his mother wanting to benefit from this device because of Charcot's disease.

He explains at the microphone of Europe 1 that the term chosen by Emmanuel Macron is also a good idea.

"I find that the term 'assisted dying' unblocks the situation. So, there are some who say that it's a euphemism. But I don't agree. It's scary, the term euthanasia', the term 'assisted suicide' is frightening. And from the moment we are in the logic of not making this aid in dying a treatment, it will block things," explains this listener. .
