from C-FAM,
5/6/21:

UN agencies and abortion groups are angry and in shock. They may have to shut down programs in many countries because of planned cuts to “sexual and reproductive health” programs by the UK government.

The United Kingdom slashed $199 million in funding to the UN population fund. The cutbacks amount to 85 percent of the UK’s funding commitment to the international agency and roughly a quarter of its total budget.

More cuts are expected to the UK government’s Women’s Integrated Sexual Health program, which benefits abortion giant International Planned Parenthood Federation and MSI Reproductive Choices.

The head of the UN Population Fund, Natalia Kanem, called the cuts “devastating.”
