Following the two day meeting that took place between America and Russia concerning the adoption ban, we participated in a conference call from the Department of State. This phone conference was to provide everyone with details about the meeting. Unfortunately, it was not a positive meeting.
Russia is not wanting to budge. They stated "the law is the law". Even the members of the DOS were distraught by the lack of willingness to compromise.
So it is "nyet" for now.
One thing that was mentioned was that this law will probably not be around forever, so it will now be a long term waiting game for many...including us. Sweet Yana turns 2 next months. We are hoping and praying that she will not have too many birthdays without us.
...and wait some more...as long as it takes!
ReplyDeleteOh, how disheartening...but our God is bigger than Russian stubbornness! Praying for you and sweet Yana.
