Dear Members of Euradopt,
Since the late 1970s you have met regularly to discuss topics of common concern. This year on 24/25 May in Milan in cooperation with the European Parliament: The Adoption Dilemma.
May we, on behalf of the parents, suggest you discuss how to deal with the outstanding issue of solving these parents’ pain? And, of course, how to re-connect them to their children. Including apologies and financial compensation. For all parties involved.
Here some examples, we have many many more…

DOCUMENTI / La Corte d’Appello dovrà ora decidere se il procedimento va affidato a un altro giudice. Il magistrato Sofia Fioretta non aveva concesso l’ascolto delle telefonate di Marco Griffini sostenendo l’assenza di indizi. I legali dei genitori adottivi chiedono di estendere l’inchiesta ad alcuni collaboratori dell’associazione, indicati dalla Procura di Roma quando ha trasmesso il fascicolo alla Direzione distrettuale antimafia di Milano. Le famiglie contestano anche i reati di riduzione in schiavitù dei minori e truffa aggravata.

Political parties want to stop on adoption from Bulgaria
“Control is insufficient and rules are not always followed”
The PvdA, SP, D66 and Christian Union consider that the adoption of children from Bulgaria must stop until further research is done. The Parties shall notify this following the broadcast of Brandpunt Reporter of tonight, in which different stakeholders tell that the adoption procedures in Bulgaria are not always properly followed. Since 2010 more than 80 Bulgarian children came to the Netherlands.
Nobody involved in adoptions in Bulgaria, says to be able to check whether adoptions are governed by the rules. According to those involved, children go abroad while they have family in Bulgaria who wants to take care of them. This is not allowed by the Bulgarian and international adoption laws.

Pourquoi personne n’a pu éviter le drame des enfants volés du Congo
Soraya Ghali Journaliste au Vif/L’Express
Du Le Vif/L’Express du 10/05/18
Il y a pile un an, le quotidien flamand Het Laatste Nieuws révélait que trois enfants
congolais volés à leurs familles biologiques avaient été adoptés en Belgique. En
novembre, le parquet fédéral annonçait un quatrième cas. Le Vif/L’Express est
aujourd’hui en mesure d’affirmer qu’il y en a un cinquième. Au moins. Pourquoi
personne n’a pu éviter ces drames ? Alors que les signaux d’alerte avaient été
lancés.
