Question

If the Amicable Agreement does not enumerate a custodial parent's right to remove a child from a country does Russian Law impute the requirement to obtain approval from the non-custodial parent?

Answer

As a have already mentioned a few times, the law expressly provides that a child may leave abroad together with one of the parents. According to the amicable agreement the child lives with the mother. Therefore no special permit was required. Mother was acting within the authorities given to her by the laws and the amicable agreement.

The amicable agreement doesn’t contain any provisions according to which the child shall reside at a certain address. Child’s place of residence is his mother’s place of residence, wherever it is.
