Pro-abortion women are frontrunners to be the next UN Secretary-General
(New York, C-Fam) The race to select the next [] Secretary-General of the United Nations is well underway. All the frontrunners are women, and they are well-known abortion advocates.
Western-backed feminist organizations are lobbying countries to select a woman to the lead the United Nations when the term of the current UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres ends next year. At the recent UN Commission on the Status of Women, forty-five member states agreed that the UN Security Council should “consider nominating women as candidates.” The final candidate must then be approved by the General Assembly.

As president of Chile, she successfully shepherded a multi-year campaign to legalize abortion in Chile. As head of UN Women and the highest UN human rights official she streamlined abortion promotion in the UN bureaucracy as well as the promotion of transgender rights, including self-identification.
She issued a scathing attack against the U.S. Supreme Court after the 2022 Dobbs decision. In that case the court declared abortion was an issue that each American state should legislate democratically and not a constitutional right. Bachelet called the decision a “huge blow to women’s human rights and gender equality” and said that “abortion is firmly rooted in international human rights law and is at the core of women and girls’ autonomy.”…
