It became clear why Russia does not ban the adoption of children to unfriendly countries 12:02

The State Duma decided not to consider a bill prohibiting the adoption of orphans from Russia and their transfer to citizens of countries considered hostile, as instead a more legally justified initiative will be considered. About this “Parliamentary newspaper” It has been said Chairwoman of the State Duma Committee on Family Protection, Issues of Fatherhood, Motherhood and Childhood Nina Ostanina.

According to him, the list of unfriendly states included the United States, the Czech Republic, Australia, England, Canada, Japan and all EU countries. But in July 2024, another document was submitted to the State Duma, which could ban the adoption of children by citizens of countries where gender reassignment is legal. It is planned to be considered in the first reading on September 25.

“We withdrew the bill we had prepared before. It was broad and generally prohibited adoption to unfriendly states. Later, we were part of the team of authors of another initiative that more precisely defined the countries where adoption was prohibited, especially those where gender reassignment was allowed. In fact, it is the same bill, but more legally verified. That is why we agreed on an alternative,” Ostanina said.

The new bill applies to citizens of NATO countries, most of which have legalized gender reassignment.

In June, the Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin spokeIt is important that in Russia the adoption of children by citizens of countries that allow gender reassignment is prohibited.

Previously in South Korea It has been said regarding forced and compulsory adoption abroad.
