Investigation Revisits Surrogacy Networks
The case of surrogacy trafficking has been uncovered in Europe, where the industry of surrogacy is developing secretly and hiding a black market for the sale of eggs and cross-border arrangements. The global market value for surrogacy is estimated to reach between $22 billion and $129 billion by 2032, and it is classified as human trafficking by the European Parliament. Investigations reveal that agencies such as "Kendali" in Georgia have violated women's rights, with many women abandoned in harsh conditions. Its founders have been sentenced to prison. Meanwhile, black markets in Turkey and Cyprus conceal exploitation of women. The number of pregnancies via surrogate motherhood is increasing, along with associated health risks and the undermining of women's rights. The problem is exacerbated by legal loopholes and disparities in legislation between countries, with networks evading restrictions, while in the UK, laws still permit the use of international arrangements that threaten the rights of women and children.
