First lady Melania Trump penned a personal letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin raising concerns over children abducted during the Russia-Ukraine war, two White House officials tell ABC News.
President Donald Trump hand delivered the letter to Putin during their summit in Alaska, those officials said, but did not provide further details about the contents of the letter.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said thousands of children have been kidnapped by Russia.

“We cannot reach an agreement with them on the return of the children,” Zelenskyy has stated.
The first lady was not on this trip, but the president often talks about how his wife reminds him of the brutality of Russia’s attacks on Ukraine.
“I go home, I tell the first lady, ‘I spoke to Vladimir today, we had a wonderful conversation.’ And she says, ‘Oh really, another city was just hit,’” the president said weeks ago.
