Russia News Update

According to this article it seems that a U.S. - Russia adoption pact is near, possibly to be completed within the next six months. According to a Russian official (through Google translate), "Virtually all the provisions of the treaty, which were proposed by Russia and which is fundamental, the Americans gave their consent." I've seen conflicting news as to whether this treaty will apply retroactively which will allow Russia to press charges in this case. I wouldn't disagree in this instance, but it is a dangerous, slippery slope to navigate for other issues in the future.

We've requested an update from our adoption agency and will let you know when we hear from them.
