Dima Yakovlev Law

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Dima Yakovlev Law (Russian: Zakon Dimy YAkovleva), formally "On Sanctions for Individuals Violating Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms of the Citizens of the Russian Federation" also known as the Dima Yakovlev Bill, Dima Yakovlev Act, or anti-Magnitsky law is a law in Russia that bans citizens of the United States from adopting children from Russia. The law, signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin on 28 December 2012, will take effect on January 1, 2013. The law is named after a Russian orphan adopted by a family from Purcellville, Virginia who died of heat stroke after being in a parked car for nine hours. The law is described as a response to the Magnitsky bill in the United States, which places sanctions on Russian officials who were involved in a tax scandal exposed by Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky.
