Russia has suspended all adoptions to the United States until procedures can be agreed on, amid anger following the return to Russia of Artyom Savelyev by his adoptive mother with a letter saying she wanted the adoption ‘disannulled‘.  President Dmitry Medvedev called her act ‘a monstrous deed‘. A US delegation is due in Moscow to discuss the setting out of parental duties and a system to monitor the treatment of adopted children; it is not thought that the suspension will last more than a few weeks.  A statement released at the end of the BRIC summit in Brazil pledged to resist protectionism and promote trade in local currencies.  Medvedev praised the BRIC format for ease in decision-making and coordinating efforts.  Russia will step up security measures for the 2014 Olympics in light of recent terrorist attacks.  The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, welcomed deposed President Kurmanbek Bakiyev’s departure and formal resignation from his post Kyrgyzstan, and praised Russia’s role in the development.  Meanwhile, ‘Russia’s membership in NATO is clearly a nonissue for the near future‘.  Medvedev said he was hopeful that the ‘negative scenario‘ in Kyrgyzstan had been averted, although said that political stability was still at risk, and that the Kyrgyz scenario could repeat itself in other former Soviet republics.
