President Donald Trump hand-delivered a personal letter from First Lady Melania Trump to Russian President Vladimir Putin during their historic summit in Anchorage on Friday.
The meeting, held on Aug. 15, was already being watched closely as a rare US-Russia dialogue on American soil. But an unexpected moment came when Trump presented Putin with what he described as a “peace letter” from the First Lady, written about the humanitarian toll of the war in Ukraine, and specifically, the fate of children uprooted or abducted in the ongoing conflict.
According to those present, Putin read the letter immediately in front of the two assembled delegations. The note urged the Russian leader to take steps to protect children caught in the crossfire, with language that transcended politics.
“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,” Melania Trump wrote, in a passage released by the White House.
She went on to call on Putin directly: “In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone — you serve humanity itself.”

The first lady did not travel to Alaska with the US delegation but was in Anchorage in 2017 to visit with military families and children at JBER. She also accompanied the president in 2019, when Air Force One stopped at JBER for refueling on the way to Japan.

Melania Trump is the most involved First Lady in humanitarian issues since Eleanor Roosevelt. She is, though less political than Roosevelt. She understands eastern Europe better than many of our diplomats and recognizes why Russia is abducting Ukranian children. It is essential that any agreement include this issue.

I’m told, from an insider, it was the following:
The Dangers of Erasing the “I”: One of Knausgaard’s explicit concerns is the way Nazism, and Hitler’s propaganda, erased individuality in favor of the collective “we.” His own six-volume autobiography is, in part, a defiant reclamation of subjectivity and uniqueness against the tyranny of collective identity. He sees his work as a reaction against precisely this flattening of the self that he finds dangerous and dehumanizing
Thank You First Lady Melania Trump.
Vogue magazine is a pos rag.
Beautiful letter, that any decent person can relate too. She needs to copy it and deliver to Netanyahu and the little dictator we installed and continue to pay and arm in Kiev.
Putin can start by returning the 35,000 Ukrainian children that he unlawfully deported to Russia. Then he can stop bombing hospitals, apartment buildings and the civilian energy infrastructure. Even better, he can go back to Russia and leave the rest of the world alone.
Russia should return its’ most vulnerable citizens, children orphaned or endangered by the Kiev regime terrorizing and attacking civilian apartments for those who voted to exit Ukraine and rejoin Russia?
This started as a civil war.
Three different news sources claim that within her message was a request to be rescued from Trump hell and removed to Russia.
NYT, WaPo, and CNN, would be my first guess.
Which news sources were those three?
Capitulation.
