The US Supreme Court's decision to overturn the abortion law was a step backwards, according to Boris Johnson.
Johnson told Jake Tapper that this is not our court. It's not for the UK in a way. It was important for people around the world to know that the rights of women were being advanced.
Johnson said that he regretted what seemed to him to be a backward step. I'm speaking from the outside.
The landmark decision that made abortion legal was overturned by the Supreme Court. Laws that would ban abortion have been enacted in several states.
According to Johnson, it doesn't change the US's role as a representation of rights and freedom.
The United States is still a shining city on a hill. He said it was an incredible guarantor of values, democracy and freedom.
The decision could have consequences around the world, according to several global reproductive and women's rights groups.
More unsafe abortions will occur around the world if access to abortion becomes more restricted, according to the United Nations Population Fund. The UN's sexual and reproductive health agency said in a statement that decisions reversing progress have a bigger impact on the rights of women and adolescents.
The impact of the decision will be felt around the world.
The vote may embolden the anti-choice movement around the world, but it has also motivated the global community to reestablish the right to choose. We are not going back if anyone wants to deny someone's right to make decisions about what is right for their body.
She said that they will never stop working towards a world where everyone has the right to choose.
