Donald Trump has cut the funding to United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), a UN agency, due to their participation in the forced abortion regime of China.
The state department stated, “This determination was made based on the fact that China’s family planning policies still involve the use of coercive abortion and involuntary sterilisation, and UNFPA partners on family planning activities with the Chinese government agency responsible for these coercive policies.”
I'm always reminded when I attend events at the UN that the UN and WHO position is unambiguously pro-abortion… pic.twitter.com/gs7fBLIDhx

“We want to thank the Trump administration,” Stephen Phelan, Director of Mission Communications for Human Life International, told LifeSiteNews. “This is wonderful news both for the people in China who are most vulnerable – the women and babies who are most vulnerable to what the Chinese government has been doing these last several decades.”
The U.S. defunding UNFPA “sends a signal to the world that the U.S. taking this seriously again,” said Phelan. “It’s going to be paying very close attention to what the United Nations is doing. Anyone who truly respects rights, women’s freedom, and women’s reproductive health should celebrate this decision.”
“We are thrilled that the U.S. is no longer funding forced abortion and involuntary sterilization in China,” said Reggie Littlejohn, President of Women’s Rights Without Frontiers. “The blood of Chinese women and babies will no longer be on our hands…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. Last month, I also briefed the State Department on continuing coercion, including forced abortion, under China’s Two-Child Policy.”
It’s about time that we have a president who actually cares about the value of life. Obama was too busy putting men into the women’s bathroom to do much, but Trump is working to save unborn babies. The genocide of our generation must come to an end!
