The first lady said Vladimir Putin had signaled a “willingness to engage with me directly” in an unexpected White House announcement.
Melania Trump has revealed she received a letter from Vladimir Putin about the fates of children displaced in the Ukraine war.
Addressing the nation in a surprise announcement on Friday at 11 am ET, the first lady said Putin had signaled a “willingness to engage with me directly” about Ukrainian children now residing in Russia.
The Kremlin leader’s response comes after a letter from Melania was given to him during his Alaska summit with Trump in August, and amid alarming concerns over Donald’s health due to a mysterious visit.
“Since then, President Putin and I have had an open channel of communication regarding the welfare of these children. For the past three months, both sides have participated in several back-channel meetings and calls, all in good faith,” the first lady said.
She went on to add that eight Ukrainian children moved to Russia have been returned to their families in Ukraine.
