People is reporting that Elton John and his partner, David Furnish, cannot adopt Lev, the Ukranian toddler they met over the weekend, due to Ukranian laws prohbiting same sex couples from adopting and restricting parents who are at least 45 years older than the child (John is 62). The Ukranian President, Viktor Yushchenko, would have to grant John and Furnish adoption rights.
