Biden the neocolonialist: Aid to poor countries is conditioned upon accepting abortion, LGBTI agenda

A letter to US Congress by 130 African leaders: "We wish to express our concerns and suspicions that this funding is supporting reproductive health practices, including abortion, that violate our fundamental beliefs about life, family and religion."

A Message for President Biden: The Unified Voices of Africa
Share on FacebookShare on WhatsAppShare on TelegramShare on TwitterShare on WeChat

It often happens that money channeled to Africa for policies such as combating AIDS is not spent on that but, in case of the U.S., it is tied to policies that favor the LGBT ideology and depraved mores. In exchange for large sums of money, the country (usually an African or an Asian one) must implement a set of ideological laws imported from the West thanks to the UN or directly from the United States. Now the leaders of African countries are exposing the Biden Administration and denouncing its shameful immoral and neocolonialist blackmail.

A letter signed by 130 African leaders (parliamentarians, bishops, legislators…) and addressed to the U.S. Congress calls for the PEPFAR AIDS program, whose funding is to be approved soon, not to be tainted with the promotion of anti-life and anti-family practices, including abortion, as researched by the Heritage Foundation. PEPFAR, the U.S. government’s plan against AIDS in Africa, was first authorized by the U.S. Congress in 2003. After two decades, it has become the most expensive aid program in history: more than $5 billion a year in funding, and $110 billion from inception through 2022.

One of the most successful countries in the fight against AIDS, which implemented measures long before PEPFAR arrived, is Uganda. This country has succeeded in significantly reducing the rate of HIV infections by encouraging abstinence and monogamy, shows a research by Edward Green, a medical anthropologist at Harvard University. As Ugandan authorities are well aware, contrary to what the United Nations promotes, even condoms, the use of which is always contrary to natural law, are not so effective. Their porous material allows HIV transmission in 10-15% of cases.

From the original PEPFAR, the focus has now shifted to trying to promote abortion. As a result, 130 African leaders from 15 countries (Ethiopia, Swaziland, Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia) have just signed a letter, dated June 6, 2023, denouncing these abuses. The leaders, who begin by thanking the aid plan for reducing AIDS rates in their countries, are concerned about the changes: “We wish to express our concerns and suspicions that this funding is supporting reproductive health practices, including abortion, that violate our fundamental beliefs about life, family and religion.” The letter also asks that organizations collaborating with the U.S. government in implementing PEPFAR should not attempt to “introduce ideas and practices that are divisive and incompatible with those of Africa.”

In response, the Biden Administration introduced visa restrictions on Ugandan officials and parliamentarians after this African nation passed an anti-LGBTQ law. The law, voted for by a large majority and supported by all Christian churches, drew immediate disapproval from Western governments, which threatened to block billions of dollars in foreign aid that the country receives each year.

Two crucial questions arise here. First: Are the Ugandan parliamentarians who promoted and passed that law free and democratically elected by their people, or do they have to ask for Biden’s permission before they act? Second: Do Western countries that like the U.S. want to generously help poor countries and promote their development and welfare or, in fact, they seek to blackmail them in favor of lobbies and industries of international perversion and death?
