Didn’t Russia already ban foreign adoption?
RT:
Russia has finalized a ban on the adoption of children to countries that allow gender-reassignment procedures. According to a decree signed by President Vladimir Putin on Saturday, people from countries that allow gender changes through medical procedures – including surgery and puberty blockers – or simply through changes to identity documents without any medical intervention, will no longer be able to adopt Russian children.
The decree added the changes to the country’s Family Code and came into effect on the date of its publication.
…
Russia banned same-sex couples from adopting children in 2013. Under the ‘Dima Yakovlev Law’ passed that year, the country also prohibited adoptions by US nationals, after a Russian orphan adopted by a Virginia couple was left in a car for nine hours and died of a heat stroke.
Russia also has a ban on distributing LGBT-related content, and the “international LGBT public movement” has been outlawed in the country since 2022.
Yeah, the war has definitely helped the Russian right ram through a lot of stuff that needed ramming through.
Frankly, all adoption should be banned. It’s a sick concept. If kids don’t have parents or any relatives, put them in an orphanage. It’s much healthier.
