Summary

The Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs emphasizes that States are sovereign in determining their policy on international adoption and that the Hague Convention of May 29, 1993 on protection of children and cooperation in matters of international adoption (CLH 93), which France and South Africa have ratified, prohibits undue pressure on the authorities of the countries of origin of children. He specifies moreover that the difficulties observed in South Africa concern all ongoing cases, and not specifically those of same-sex couples. In order to study the reasons for these difficulties and the measures that could help to remedy them, the international adoption mission has planned, in its action program for 2018, to invite its South African counterpart by the end of the year.
