CNN Whines About Trump Admin's 'Jaw Dropping' Request to Remove 'Key Language' Regarding 'Reproductive Health' from UN Resolution

CNN host Brooke Baldwin closed the 3:00 PM ET hour of CNN Newsroom by mentioning that "the UN Security Council passed a resolution to protect wartime rape victims" before  complaining that "it was missing some key language that mentioned sexual and reproductive health." A perplexed Baldwin asked CNN Senior Diplomatic Correspondent Michelle Kosinski "so the language was removed because of protests from the Trump administration?" Kosinski responded: "yes. I mean, they are really the only ones that had a problem with this. That's why, in the human rights community, among people at the State Department, this is not only jaw dropping that they needed this language removed but it's also appalling to many people." Kosinski talked about how the original document "made reference to health services, sexual and reproductive health, providing those services to women, making sure it's nondiscriminatory," in addition to including language about "psycho-social services, legal, health services, taking into account specific needs of persons with disabilities."  Kosinski summarized the language as a "well-rounded paragraph just saying we need to provide these services to people." Kosinski mentioned that "all of that is gone" in the final draft of the resolution, which the UN Security Council voted on. Kosinski said "there's no reference anywhere in this resolution to health services, to sexual and reproductive health specifically. That is because the Trump administration sees that kind of language, however vague, as code for abortion." Kosinski also noted that "it was the US siding with China and Russia to take out another part of this document that would have allowed for monitoring and reporting of these kinds of atrocities in war." The whole tone of the segment painted the Trump administration as extreme, right-wing pro-lifers who side with authoritarian governments.
