What has Clinton done for SEVEN YEARS!

From the article cited:

Bowing to U.S. pressure
on an emotional issue, the government of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder has decided to institute new measures to help American parents embroiled in custody disputes to visit their children living in Germany.

Whatever we think of the current administration, it has apparently at least applied pressure on the issue, which is more than has been done in the past. This issue has existed for a long time, not only where Germans are concerned, and most US administrations and the State Dept. have generally ignored it, seeing it as an irritant in their quest for "more important" diplomatic goals.

There has always been sporadic coverage even in the mainstream media, but no sustained outcry.
