First Lady Melania Trump wasn’t at the big Ukraine war summit in Alaska between her husband, President Donald Trump, and Russian President Vladimir Putin — but she was there in spirit.
Trump handed Putin a letter from his wife, appealing to him to remember the innocence of the children caught in the midst of the fighting between Russia and Ukraine, and to put an end to the violence. “In today’s world, some children are forced to carry a quiet laughter, untouched by the darkness around them — a silent defiance against the forces that can potentially claim their future,” the first lady wrote. “Mr. Putin, you can singlehandedly restore their melodic laughter.”
