| | A committee of the U.N. General Assembly, that is deeply divided, ended up adopting a non-binding statement calling on governments around the world to prohibit any form of human cloning. The vote came on Friday. The vote extends to techniques used in research on human stem cells. The legal committee vote was 71 to 35 with 43 abstentions. The proposal was put forth by Honduras and had the support of the Administration of George W. Bush. The debate centers on research that relies on therapeutic cloning. In this process, human embryos end up being cloned to obtain cells that will be used in studies and then later discarded. |
