Ammon News - First Lady Melania Trump penned a “peace letter” to Russian President Vladimir Putin, pushing for an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine and lamenting the violent conflict’s harm on the youngest generation.

The “peace letter” focused on the war’s detrimental impact on children caught in the crosshairs and was handed to Putin by President Trump before their summit in Alaska to discuss the war, Fox News reported.

Putin immediately read the letter while American and Russian delegations watched on.

“Every child shares the same quiet dreams in their heart, whether born randomly into a nation’s rustic countryside or a magnificent city-center. They dream of love, possibility, and safety from danger,” the first lady wrote in a letter obtained by the outlet.

“As parents, it is our duty to nurture the next generation’s hope. As leaders, the responsibility to sustain our children extends beyond the comfort of a few.”

“Mr. Putin, you can singlehandedly restore their melodic laughter. In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone—you serve humanity itself,” Melania pleaded.

The “peace letter” was written before the meeting between Trump and Putin in Alaska — the first major meeting between the US and Russia since June 2021, a mere eight months before the war started.

Still, the US and Russia have been in frequent communication primarily over the phone, and especially in recent months as Trump has tried to broker an end to the deadly war. NYP
