We are provided with the first fact by the population
fund of the United Nations in its report of 1991. This report recommends widespread
distribution of contraceptive methods, whether chemical, mechanical or surgical. The
RU 486 is barely mentioned explicitly, but allusion to it is made
when it speaks of "new approaches to post-coital contraception". It is specified
that juridical obstacles to distribution of these methods must be removed.
The second fact comes from the World Health
Organization. In a report of 1992, this specialized agency of the United Nations explains
why and how it sponsors research on human reproduction.1 It comes out clearly
from this report that the World Health Organization covers with its authority and lends
its resources to the effort to widely distribute drugs destined for the control of the
population in poor countries. Among these drugs are figured preparations that have the
effect of provoking early abortions.
No matter how these institutions defend themselves, they
really promote the practice of abortion and do it as a
method of restricting births.
