VATICAN CITY, Feb 14 (LifeSiteNews) – Archbishop Jean-Louis Tauran, Holy See Secretary for Relations with States, blasted the United Nations Friday for their support of abortion in a speech to the Pontifical Academy for Life. In this watershed talk, the bishop explains in some detail the dangers of the UN international conferences and their promotion of abortion and abortifacient contraception under the guise of “reproductive health” and “rights”.

He notes that the promotion of abortion at the UN was spawned by “two factors: first, apocalyptic forecasts of a population boom exceeding the resources of the planet and, second,  a radical feminist ideology calling for women to have complete control over their own bodies,  including any unborn children.”

Tauran points out that the UN’s World Health Organization (WHO), the Population Fund (UNFPA),  the Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the Educational arm (UNESCO), and the World Trade Organization have all been guilty of promoting one or more of the atrocities of abortion, abortifacient birth control, and embryo experimentation.
