French President Emmanuel Macron is in Andorra on April 28, 2026, fulfilling his role as co-prince of the principality, alongside the Catholic Bishop of Urgell, Josep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat. The visit is expected to address Andorra's proposed moves to decriminalise abortion, a significant shift for the predominantly Catholic country.
Andorra, one of the few European countries where abortion remains illegal, has been debating reform. Macron's support as co-prince could influence the legislative process, though final decisions rest with Andorra's parliament. The bishop's stance remains cautious, reflecting the Catholic Church's opposition.
No specific timeline for decriminalisation has been confirmed. The visit highlights Macron's dual role as French head of state and Andorran co-prince, a unique arrangement dating back to 1278.
