Dublín. Irlanda dio un rotundo “sí” al derecho al aborto este sábado, una vez finalizado el escrutinio del histórico referendo, toda una “revolución silenciosa” en el país católico en palabras de su primer ministro, Leo Varadkar.

El 66% de los 2,1 millones de irlandeses que votaron se mostraron partidarios de derogar la octava enmienda de la Constitución irlandesa que prohibía la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo.
