Abstract
This research paper investigates the complex relationship between international adoption and its impact as a result of global politics, law, ethics, and international relations. It specifically focuses on the Russian adoption ban implemented in 2012, enacted in response to geopolitical tensions and the Magnitsky Act in the United States. The ban disrupted the adoption processes and raised concerns about adherence to international child rights standards, notably violating Guiding Principle Three of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). This principle emphasizes prioritizing the "child's best interests" in all decision-making. This examination asserts that the Russian adoption ban severely encroaches on this principle, hindering the child's right to a stable and nurturing family environment. Moreover, the paper explores the ban's historical context, consequences, long-term implications, and recommendations within the UNCRC framework. This paper aims to enhance our understanding of the global adoption landscape's complexities, options, and ethical duties.
