Recently a TV crew from Romania asked me, was I seriously suggesting that the condition of children’s institutions in Romania could jeopardise their application for membership of the EU. These young journalists were totally amazed at the deep concerns many of us have about all aspects of childcare in Romania. Our concerns about trafficking in children as the world was beating a path to their door in search of children became obscured between the desperation of parents looking for children to adopt and the clear indications that many of those who were facilitating commercial trafficking in children became part of the politics of Romania, and indeed those countries whose nationals were pressurising for open adoption, notably the USA.
Baroness Nicholson has, in her excellent report, highlighted these issues and by her deep concern has finally alerted the Romanian Authorities, and her report will hopefully result in the radical changes required to protect children."@en1
