Melania Trump has stated eight Ukrainian youngsters have been reunited with their households following ongoing talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In August, the primary woman wrote a letter to Putin, and her husband hand delivered it throughout his assembly with the Russian president in Alaska.
The invasion of Ukraine has seen youngsters being taken out of their nation by Russia: In June, the Humanitarian Analysis Lab at Yale College estimated that greater than 35,000 had been taken to over 100 places in Russia and occupied territories.
Talking to reporters on the White Home on Friday, Mrs Trump stated that Putin responded to her letter and that they’ve established an “open channel of communication” concerning the welfare of these youngsters.
She stated: “We have agreed to co-operate with each other for the benefit of all people involved in this war.”

‘Melania’s letter to Putin well-received’
In 2023, the Worldwide Legal Courtroom issued an arrest warrant for Putin for struggle crimes, accusing him of private accountability for the abductions of youngsters from Ukraine.
On the time, the Kremlin stated that Russia discovered the questions raised by the ICC “outrageous and unacceptable”.
They added the warrants are “null and void” as Russia doesn’t recognise the ICC and has not signed as much as the Rome Statutes – the treaty underpinning the world’s everlasting struggle crimes tribunal.
