What became of Romania's neglected orphans?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8425001.stm

A BBC investigation has uncovered appalling conditions and abuse in adult institutions in Romania, 20 years after the fall of Nicolai Ceausescu exposed conditions in the country's orphanages.



This is what can happen to the orphans of Haiti if they have to be raised in State care. UNICEF wants International adoption shut down, but Haiti has no means to care for the large number of orphans it now has. UNICEF helped end adoption in Romania too. Does UNICEF care about the best interest of the kids or the publics perception of the country that has orphans?
