Ukraine.<\/p>\n
\u201cEach child has lived in turmoil because of the war in Ukraine,\u201d Melania said in a statement. \u201cThree were separated from their parents and displaced to the Russian Federation because of frontline fighting. The other five were separated from family members across borders because of the conflict.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her tone was calm, but her words carried unmistakable resolve: \u201cMy ongoing mission is twofold \u2014 to prioritize and optimize the free flow of health-related information surrounding all children who have fallen victim to this war, and to facilitate the reunification of children with their families until each individual returns home.\u201d<\/p>\n
From letter to leverage<\/p>\n
Friday\u2019s announcement followed Melania\u2019s August \u201cpeace letter\u201d to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The gesture, seen as a rare act of soft diplomacy, quickly drew global attention.<\/p>\n
The letter, hand-delivered by President Donald Trump during his summit with Putin in Alaska, called for the protection of children affected by war and urged the Russian leader to \u201cserve humanity itself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now, the first lady confirms that Putin responded to her letter in writing and expressed a willingness to engage directly, establishing an open channel of communication on the matter.<\/p>\n
My representative has been working directly with President Putin\u2019s team to ensure the safe reunification of children with their families between Russia and Ukraine,\u201d she revealed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
