Euthanasia is illegal, but assisted suicide is legal (or vice versa) | In 2008, the National Assembly passed laws legalizing assisted suicide. However, euthanasia is still illegal, primarily due to fear that the person being euthanized may not want to be killed, even if others think that s/he were suffering and that it'd be better for him/her to die. Thus, consent requires either a living will or for the patient to explicitly give permission. |

In terms of the legality of euthanasia and assisted suicide, the Conservative parties are in consensus, believing that euthanasia goes against the Namorese value of life. Meanwhile, the Progressive parties remain divided on the issue, with the Socialists and DemSocs supporting the decriminalization of euthanasia, and the Liberationists opposed to it. |

The Xiaodongese government has officially disputed the notion of the concept of euthanasia, saying all forms of death are "fundamentally cruel" and that euthanasia and assisted suicide go against Xiaodong's "peaceful culture". |
