Assisted dying laws in different countries

[syed]

There was an article about assisted dying a few weeks ago in the news. In Spain it's legal for residents since 2021. Austria legalised it in 2022. Euthanasia and assisted dying allowed in Belgium and Netherlands available to non-residents but to be able to do it you need a longstanding relationship with a local doctor, which makes it difficult. 75% of British public want it legalised but only 35% of MP's are in favour of it.
Switzerland has Dignitas (using sodium pentobarbital whatever that is) but lots of requirements like it being apporved by doctors and costs about $7k.

It should be legalised everywhere. It is cruel to try and force people to live, the right to die should always be respected. I do believe that over time, more countries will be more accepting of it. All that I want is to peacefully pass away, I would find it comforting if I had that option available for me.
