Russia Adoption
I think restricting adoptions in Russia will do more harm than good. It seems the move is more political, than as a concern for the welfare of Russia's children.
| QUOTE |

| QUOTE |
| The tens of thousands of children available for adoption in Russia often live in poorly funded orphanages. Activists say as many as 2 million other orphans may live without state help. |
