A Possible Answer to Prayer?

On a previous blog, we mentioned the proposal in the Ukrainian parliament to put a moratorium on adoptions. (this would possibly pause or end our adoption process)

Well, the vote had been postponed until December 24th. But - now it might be postponed even further. We're not sure yet, but considering the situation in the Parliament, I'd say there's a good chance.

The reason = a bloody brawl in the Ukrainian Parliament!

Here's what BBC News had to say:

"The clash came after a group of Mrs Tymoshenko's supporters had blocked the podium to protest at a corruption inquiry against her, which opened this week.About 40 Party of Regions MPs, loyal to President Viktor Yanukovych, and 30 opposition MPs were involved in the punch-up, the Ukrayinska Pravda news website reported.Correspondents say brawls are not unusual in the parliament, but this one was particularly violent."

Here's some video of the brawl (we didn't take this video...):
