Trump tells pro-life nations he is 'proud' to rejoin Geneva Consensus Declaration

(C-FAM — WASHINGTON, D.C.) — President Trump said he was “proud” to rejoin the Geneva Consensus Declaration, a pro-life international declaration launched during the first Trump administration that Joe Biden reneged on his first day in office.

“I will never waver in protecting the sanctity of every human life. I will always be a voice for the voiceless and a defender for the most vulnerable among us,” said President Trump in a letter to a gathering of 40 governments that signed the declaration. The commemorative event took place at the Willard Hotel on Wednesday and celebrated the 5th anniversary of the Declaration. The event originally scheduled to take place at the capitol building had to be moved because of the government shutdown.

“My administration is steadfastly devoted to restoring a culture that values the inherent dignity of every child and to upholding the eternal truth that every person is created in the holy image and likeness of God, with infinite hope and boundless potential,” he continued. “Together with our allies and partners across the world, we will continue to build a future rooted in faith, family, and freedom.”

The event proved the staying power of the Geneva Consensus Declaration which continues to be one of the most effective and low-cost foreign policy initiatives of the first Trump administration. Despite relatively little expense and effort, and in the face of active attempts by the Biden administration and the European Union to sabotage the Declaration, it has remained a powerful tool to convene governments around the protection of life, optimal women’s health, the family, and sovereignty. This year not only did the U.S. rejoin the declaration, the Republic of Guinea also joined for the first time.
