BRUSSELS, October 4, 2002 (LSN.ca) - The Population Research Institute (PRI) reports that EU funding for the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) has been delayed. This delay indicates the grave disquiet among members of the European parliament about increased spending for the UNFPA in the light of the U.S. State Department's findings that the UNFPA is helping China to "more effectively" carry out its program of forced abortion.
After presentations by PRI to the Members of the European Parliament outlining the UNFPA collusion in China's forced abortion regime, a vote on a report detailing the European Unions contribution to groups such as UNFPA was put on hold until November.
In September, PRI's lead investigator, Josephine Guy, briefed members of the European Parliament (MEPs) about UNFPA support of forced abortion in China. Ms. Guy testified about her investigation in China last September 2001, when she interviewed victims and witnesses of forced abortion, forced sterilization, forced use of IUDs, and imprisonment and destruction of homes for non-compliance, in one of UNFPA's model county programs in China.
In addition, Guy conveyed to MEPs evidence obtained in China last May by the US State Department team of investigators. Those investigators found evidence of "social compensation fees" in several UNFPA county programs in China. Guy pointed out that, based on solid evidence, the U.S. State Department found that the UNFPA was providing funding, technical and surgical support so that the Chinese State Family Planning Commission could implement its program of forced abortion more effectively.
