It would be a great ending to this year, when Russia’s President will outlaw American adoptions. And, extend the ban to all countries, as announced by Ombudsman Pavel Astakhov.
It takes a lot of strength and courage to do so. The ‘adoption lobby’ is powerful and knows how to play its game.
Already in April 2010, ACT sent the Russian Ombudsman, Pavel Astakhov, a letter of support and shared some of our experience.
Now, on Christmas 2012, we again gave our full support to ending the trade in Russian children.
