Obama supports US-Russia adoption agreement


Obama supports Russia-US adoption agreement



8.05.2010, 17:05


In an interview with Russian television Saturday, President Barack Obama supported proposals for binding rules concerning the adoption of Russian orphans by American families. Russia keeps such adoptions on hold pending a formal Russian-American agreement on the matter. The suspension has been in force since early April when a woman in Tennessee put her 8-year-old Russian-born adoptee on a Moscow flight with a note on him that she was renouncing the adoption. Mr. Obama described the incident as horrible.
