President Trump has posted the full text of a letter from First Lady Melania Trump that he delivered to Russia’s Vladimir Putin as part of the pair’s Friday summit in Alaska regarding the fate of the Ukraine war.
In the letter, which Putin reportedly read “immediately” in front of delegates at the summit, the First Lady urged the Russian leader to remember the innocence of the children caught in the middle of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone — you serve humanity itself,” the letter reads. “Such a bold idea transcends all human division, and you, Mr. Putin, are fit to implement this vision with the stroke of the pen today. It is is time.”
The president revealed the letter on Truth Social, after making multiple posts criticizing media coverage of the Alaska summit, which did not result in any lasting deal to end the Ukraine war.
“It’s incredible how the Fake News violently distorts the TRUTH when it comes to me,” Trump wrote in an earlier post. “There is NOTHING I can say or do that would lead them to write or report honestly about me.”
“If I got Russia to give up Moscow as part of the Deal, the Fake News, and their PARTNER, the Radical Left Democrats, would say I made a terrible mistake and a very bad deal,” he said in another.
