"Chosen humanity over war": Melania Trump hosts Russian, Ukrainian envoys at White House after mediating Oleshky ceasefire
US First Lady Melania Trump on Thursday (local time) hosted Russian and Ukrainian delegations at the White House following the successful implementation of a humanitarian ceasefire in the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky and the surrounding Kherson region.
Melania Trump brought Russian and Ukrainian representatives together at the White House on Nov. 5, according to WWMT, while BBC News reported that she called for a lasting truce. WWMT said Putin’s envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, thanked Trump and said Putin had directed support for the ceasefire; Weston Mercury reported it was signed on October 23. BBC News described her role in securing the truce as unspecified, and the reports do not detail the terms of a lasting agreement.
