Wide of traffic and people near Vatican\u003cbr/\u003eThe pope's health minister has entered the row over a controversial right-to die-case in Italy.\u003cbr/\u003eIn an interview with AP Television News, Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan called euthanasia a solution \"not worthy of a human being\", arguing life and self-dignity are inseparable.\u003cbr/\u003eHe spoke on Tuesday, as the woman at the centre of the case, Eluana Englaro, was transferred to a hospital where she is to be allowed to die after 17 years in a vegetative state.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Catholic church and pro-life activists have mounted a campaign to keep Eluana Englaro alive, denouncing what they say would be her execution. Others contend that Englaro's father is trying to give her the dignified death she had sought.\u003cbr/\u003eHer transfer on Tuesday night re-ignited a bitter national debate.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Englaro case has drawn comparisons in Italy with that of Terry Schiavo, the American woman who was at the centre of a right-to-die debate until her death in 2005. \u003cbr/\u003eSchiavo's husband, who wanted her feeding tube removed against her parents' wishes, prevailed in a polarising battle in the United States that reached Congress, then-President George W. Bush and the Supreme Court.\u003cbr/\u003eIn 2007, the Vatican also joined the debate, condemning Schiavo's death as \"arbitrarily hastened\" and calling the removal of her feeding tube a violation of the principles of Christianity and civilisation.\u003cbr/\u003eEnglaro was transferred by ambulance to the northeastern city of Udine from Lecco, where she had been cared for, in the early hours of Tuesday, said family lawyer Vittorio Angiolini.\u003cbr/\u003eA small crowd of anti-euthanasia activists gathered and heckled the ambulance as it was leaving Lecco. Some of the activists shouted slogans such as \"Eluana, Wake Up!\" \"Don't Kill Her!\" and \"Eluana Is Alive.\"\u003cbr/\u003eEnglaro has been in a vegetative state since a car accident in 1992, when she was 20. Her father has led a protracted court battle to disconnect her feeding tube, insisting it was her wish.\u003cbr/\u003eAn Italian court in the summer granted his request, setting off a political storm in this Roman Catholic country.\u003cbr/\u003eHer father sought to have her removed from the Catholic clinic in Lecco to Udine, in the region where the family is from. But the government issued a decree last month telling state hospitals that they must guarantee care for people in vegetative states, leading at least one hospital in Udine to refuse to take Englaro.\u003cbr/\u003eEventually, the private facility La Quiete in Udine agreed to take her.\u003cbr/\u003eAngiolini refused to discuss what steps would now be taken to end Englaro's life. News reports said that the procedure to disconnect her feeding tube would begin in a few days and would take weeks to conclude.\u003cbr/\u003eAmato De Monte, the anaesthetist who escorted Englaro on the ambulance, said she was very different from the youthful woman who has been presented in the media.\u003cbr/\u003eHe defended the clinic's choice in the face of mounting criticism, saying in an interview to RAI state TV: \"Eluana will not suffer because Eluana died 17 years ago.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSome in the conservative government of Premier Silvio Berlusconi have criticised the move, and Welfare Minister Maurizio Sacconi said the government was investigating the transfer.\u003cbr/\u003eBy law, Italy does not allow euthanasia.\u003cbr/\u003ePatients have a right to refuse treatment, but there is no law that allows them to give advance directions on what treatment they wish to receive if they become unconscious.\u003cbr/\u003eMany have urged parliament to adopt legislation to fill the hole. But the issue is charged with emotions and religious overtones, and positions differ even within the same political bloc.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv
