Trump Praised for Defunding UNFPA: “The Blood of Chinese Women is No Longer On Our Hands”

One of the leading activists against forced abortions and population control in China is praising president Donald Trump for defunding the UNFPA. That is the United Nations population agency that has been found repeatedly over the years to be complicit in the Chinese coercive abortion program under its two child policy.

As LifeNews reported, the U.S. State Department sent a letter to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee announcing its plans to stop funding UNFPA because of its support of forced and coerced abortions and sterilizations in China. The cut amounts to at least $32.5 million for the 2017; the department said it will redirect the funds to the U.S. Agency for International Development, which provides medical care to families across the world.

Reggie Littlejohn, founder and president of Women’s Rights Without Frontiers, and one of the top activists against gendercide in China, told LifeNews she was elated that the Trump administration has announced that it will cut off U.S. funding for the UNFPA. She said the evidence is clear that “the UNFPA’s activities in China are complicit with that nation’s coercive population control program, the implementation of which includes forced abortion and involuntary sterilization.”

“We are thrilled that the U.S. is no longer funding forced abortion and involuntary sterilization in China. The blood of Chinese women and babies is no longer on our hands. My very first press release, in 2009, was entitled “You Are Funding Forced Abortions in China.” I have consistently advocated for the defunding of UNFPA over the years, most recently just a couple of weeks ago at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women,” she said.

If true, and I try to qualify most of what I read with that because... well, MSM, then good on Trump.

The progressives and other less-than-quite-human subsets (1/2 :) ) must be having a grand cow over this, I am sure.

Tax dollars shouldn't be funding abortion or any other medical procedures...

Especially in foreign lands.

For one, here is a Bush era State Department report from a fact finding mission to China in 2002


First Finding
We find no evidence that UNFPA has knowingly supported or participated in the management of a program of coercive abortion or involuntary sterilization in the PRC.

First Recommendation
We therefore recommend that not more than $34 million which has already been appropriated be released to UNFPA.

Second Finding
We find that notwithstanding some relaxation in the 32 counties in which UNFPA is involved the population programs of the PRC retain coercive elements in law and in practice.

Second Recommendation
We therefore recommend that unless and until all forms of coercion in the PRC law and in practice are eliminated, no U.S. Government funds be allocated for population programs in the PRC.

Third Finding
We find that with a population of 1.3 billion, PRC leaders view population control as a high priority and remain nervous as they face many imponderables concerning population growth and socioeconomic change. Decisions made now and in the future by the PRC could have unintended consequences. Moreover, PRC population matters affect major U.S. policy concerns and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

Third Recommendation
We therefore recommend that appropriate resources be allocated to monitor and evaluate PRC population control programs.

Another solid move by Trump.
