Adoptionscentrum

Adoptionscentrum is a Swedish NGO that has moved children out of Chile, so that they could be adopted in Sweden.^[1] Since 1969, approximately 25,000 children from about 60 countries have got a new family in Sweden.

Problems

Sveriges Television wrote that Adoptionscentrum has moved stolen children from Chile, and helped in having the children adopted in Sweden.^[2][3][4]

Adoptionscentrum said that the adoptions followed the laws of foreign countries, and followed the laws of Sweden.^[5][6]

In 2018, Aftonbladet wrote about kidnapped children from China, being moved while the politician Ulf Kristersson was the boss at Adoptionscentrum, from 2003 to 2005.^[7]
