In general, there are a lot of poor people in the world. They do not live on selling their body parts (organs) to richer people. They manage to find other ways of making a living.
But, if a poor person decides to sell its body organs, provided that they are not breaking the laws of the land, I think the poor person should be free to choose the recipient of its body organ. Freedom and common sense should prevail regardless of nationality.
