With the passage of the 2024 Appropriations Act by the US Congress, the US Department of State is required to report to Congress within 90 days on the progress of promoting the “International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dogs and Cats.”

South Korea, as an Asian country that recently achieved explicit legislation banning the consumption of dogs and cats, is undoubtedly the ideal partner for jointly launching the “International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dogs and Cats” with the United States. The World Dog Alliance has developed a series of plans to promote US-Korea cooperation:

• Founder of the World Dog Alliance, Genlin, will travel to Seoul, South Korea in May to attend the Asian Leadership Conference and introduce the importance of the “International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dogs and Cats” and the cooperation between the US and Korea through “moral politics” to political leaders from various countries.
• Explore the possibility of forming special committees of parliamentarians from both countries to expedite the initiation process of the “International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dogs and Cats,”
• Plan a new round of joint letters from the US Congress urging both governments to actively cooperate. In addition, through social media, public forums, and promotional activities, promote the concept of the International Agreement to the people of the United States and South Korea, garnering broader support.
• Organize multinational symposiums, inviting politicians from both countries to discuss the content and implementation details of the International Agreement, promoting exchange and cooperation between the two sides.

We look forward to bringing the good news of the successful launch of the “International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dogs and Cats” to animal lovers worldwide in 2024! This is not only a significant advancement for the welfare of dogs and cats but also sets a higher moral standard for the international community.
