I saw the following in an article called "Babies for sale trade faces a global crackdown" in The Guardian newspaper today. Has anyone else heard anything about this??
"But Russia is now about to go further. After a series of committee hearings last week, the Duma is considering a draft law to limit adoptions to countries that have signed a bilateral agreement. This would temporarily halt adoption to Britain and Italy, and entirely end adoptions to Canada and the US. Lakhova estimates some 100 agencies work illegally in Russia."

Goodness, I wonder when any effects of this will be happening?
Thanks for the article. So sad on so many accounts.
Didn't like that it sort of implied that ALL adoptions were "buying" children and that the parents know that and don't care, and that the donations are mandatory, when in fact most of us would agree we will gladly share what we can with them to improve all the childrens' lives.
