Trump opens an investigation into Noelia's euthanasia

BarcelonaDonald Trump picks up the gauntlet from the far-right in Spain and weighs in on the controversy over euthanasia for Noelia, the 25-year-old girl who last Thursday, after a long judicial battle, achieved assisted death. According to the New York Post, the American administration has opened an investigation into the case due to concerns that the Spanish system may have incurred "failures" in "matters of human rights".

The President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, has already reacted to the news. He assured that he will defend healthcare professionals in Catalonia "with all firmness" and has claimed "the right to a dignified death" with "one of the most advanced and exemplary legal frameworks in the world".
