### Melania Trump Voices Support for Abortion Rights in New Video

In a groundbreaking move, former First Lady Melania Trump publicly endorsed abortion rights through a video posted on her social media on Thursday. This announcement came just a day after an excerpt from her upcoming memoir divulged her pro-choice stance.

Melania, 54, emphasized the importance of individual freedom, calling it a fundamental principle she is committed to safeguarding. “Without a doubt there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth. Individual freedom,” she declared in the 30-second black-and-white clip promoting her book.

Her memoir, titled “Melania” and scheduled for release next Tuesday, further elaborates on her views. The leaked excerpt published by The Guardian reveals that she believes guaranteeing women’s autonomy in reproductive decisions is crucial. “It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government,” she wrote.

Melania also highlighted the complex moral dilemmas faced by women when deciding to undergo an abortion. She noted that many women make this choice due to personal medical concerns. “These situations with significant moral implications weigh heavily on the woman and her family and deserve our empathy,” she added. She underscored the seriousness of these decisions, including instances where the mother's life could be at risk if she proceeds with childbirth.

The video and memoir make clear Melania’s stance, marking her as a notable voice for women's reproductive rights within the political landscape.
