Eugenics as a human right?

"The question before the judges of the ECHR is this: "Is the elimination of
persons who have Down syndrome a fundamental human right?" This eugenic trend of
prenatal screening leading to abortion in many member states of the European
Union is already well known, and in France 96% of fetuses detected as having
Down syndrome are terminated."
