State Department Response: The U.S. State Department has acknowledged the policy change and is seeking further clarification from China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs. The department is working to understand the reasons behind the decision and its implications for pending adoptions.
Reaction: Ryan Hanlon, President of the National Council For Adoption, expressed disappointment over the policy, highlighting the negative impact on both the children and the families waiting to adopt. He emphasized the need for U.S. and Chinese governments to collaborate in addressing the situation and prioritize the welfare of the children.
China’s population has been declining, and the government is taking steps to address demographic challenges. This policy change follows a period of suspended adoptions during the COVID-19 pandemic and a limited resumption of cases in recent years.
