Safe to take adopted child back to Russia?

As I inch towards my second Russian adoption, I keep having this nagging fear/thought that is really bothering me. When I go for #2, I would really like to take my 4-yr-old daughter with me (adopted from Vladivostok 2 yrs ago.) Given some of the Anti-American sentiment right now, and the fact that my daughter is both an American and a Russian citizen, do you think there is ANY risk that they could try to hold her for some reason? This might be an unreasonable fear, but I have nightmares in which they are trying to take her back!! She will be travelling on an American passport, unless there is some requirement that we use the Russian passport...

Tell me I am stupid for having this fear...Tell me if you have done it, and how it works...I need to know what to expect, or if I need to make other plans... Thanks in advance for your posts!
