breastfeeding or not - new law in the UAE

Breastfeeding or not . This is not a question in the UAE anymore .Breastfeeding is mandatory .Women who do not breastfeed their babies can be sued by their husbands.
While breastfeeding is something wonderful   - not every woman is able to do it . It is not clear in the new law who will decide on one's ability of nursing a baby .
 Lactation specialists are hard to find in the UAE .

According to my views  it would serve the baby's interest if  i was not the law which enforces mothers but   proper teaching of the would be mothers by experts /other nursing mothers /lactation specialists .
