Ukraine, senator in Kyiv for a child adopted and attended 61
He went to Kyiv for Anastasia, the child he wanted to adopt; He returned to Sicily with 61 Ukrainian children, some of them orphans, others abandoned by their parents, ranging in age from 5 to 10. Since last Wednesday they have all been in Sicily, guests of the buildings in Trapani, Catania and Modica. All this was made possible thanks to Vincenzo Maurizio Sant’Angelo, senator from M5S, who decided three years ago, in complete secrecy, by agreement with his wife and two children, aged 12 and 16, to adopt a girl from Ukraine. Which does not adhere to the Hague Convention, which makes the adoption process complicated, and the epidemic has also slowed. When Sant’Angelo goes to Kyiv for the second time, he discovers with Anastasia that there are 60 other children in the same circumstances. He also discovers that while transporting a group of minors between Mariupol and Zaporizhia, he lost traces of 10 children. At that point, Sant’Angelo spoke with his colleagues in Parliament and decided to activate diplomatic channels to bring 61 minors to Italy. All this is done in cooperation with Farnesina, the Ukrainian Family Ministry, the Society of Pope John XXIII and the Italian and Ukrainian trade unions.
