Thank you, what an amazing man, he is more Ukrainian than he can imagine! And once again, my deep respect to all those who go out there and provide chances to those wonderful children, either abandoned, sick or war victims. The families adopting children are true heros! A lot needs to be done to shift mentality towards bettering the world in that direction and creating rightful incentives for all those willing to adopt

This is one STRONG man!

Such a wonderful interview ! Many blessings to both of you ! ❤

This was an interesting interview or, rather, an interesting talk. It was very personal and I almost felt as if I was sitting there with you. This way of creating a very close atmosphere worked very well for the topic and help the story telling a lot, at least in my opinion. I hope Alexei's dream will come true one day and I would also like to say Thank you to Alex for doing this and sharing it with us here.

Love his positive outlook in everything! Thank you for sharing your story Alexei.

Thank you for putting this on your KZfaq channel. It was great. Best wishes to Alexei for good health and I hope he gets to meet his Russian family.

Thank you for sharing Alexei’s story. What a wonderful photographer as well.

Another amazing story. Thank you Alex for helping so many adoptees. I am loving the stories

Amazing interview looking forward to more. Best wishes to Alexei

Thank you so much, Alex for doing this. Alexey is a great man, I hope everything goes well in his life. I am so excited to hear more stories like this one. Because each story is different. It would also be very interesting eventually when things get better (I hope they get better very soon 😢) if you could film such story with Russian or Ukranian or in fact adoptee from any other country who was adopted not to a foreign country but the same one. Would be great to hear this side as well. My dream is to hear you interviewing one of my favourite musicians Svetlana Surganova. Who is also an adoptee. She was adopted at 1972 if I am not wrong. The problem is that she doesn’t even speak English. And there is a bunch of other problems and I know this will probably never happen 😂 But I am allowed to dream 😅

Love his positive attitude! 🎉

Very moving interview 💖

Good for you to do these stories

What an amazing man, so deep and friendly, real friendly, humane...

Well done, Alexei, you made use of your time in the orphanage to improve your skills in your interests. I'm sure your kindness and unselfishness that you exhibited from childhood earned you many friends throughout your life and your curiosity has led you down many paths of discovery to find many more skills leading to a very fulfilling life. You show such a positively wonderful attitude for what you have in life, and this is something many people would appreciate and others could benefit from.

What a sweet, articulate young woman ❤❤

Really enjoyed this interview and hope for an in person meeting soon.

Thank you for sharing your stories.

Wonderful interview Alex, Alex why was Alexey put in a ORPHANAGE @ the age of four? He.is so interesting, It would be lovely to hear about his adoptive NZ family, I wish him good health, Long life,, & all of God's Blessings 🙏❤

He was very much loved by his biological family, to give him up, hoping he could get the treatment he needed!

2 good blokes there folks…

I love my parents but I sure am sad that I wasn't adopted away from Russia when I was little

do other people in his family have this heart condition
