Annotation:
Protection of the rights and legitimate interests of the individual is one of the main activities of the
state. And the protection of human rights begins with respect for the rights of the child, who, because of his
physical and mental immaturity, needs special care from the state and society. The transition of the Republic of
Kazakhstan in the 1990s to a market economy, accompanied by a deep economic crisis, had a negative impact
on the traditional spheres of social structure: work, family, education. As a result, at that time Kazakhstan and a
number of other CIS countries turned into exporting countries of children, supplying them to foreign countries
for adoption by foreign citizens. Numerous facts of adoption of children-citizens of the CIS countries by foreign
citizens, which are essentially the sale of minors, often indicate a criminal and mercenary nature on the part of
officials of guardianship and other state bodies.
