Details: Melania Trump said she commends "the leadership and persistent diplomacy of Russia and Ukraine in the pursuit of the reunification of children and families".

Quote: "Their bridge-building has created a tangible collaborative environment – an anchor for optimism. This cooperation will continue to drive the process forward through the next phase."

Details: The first lady said that she and her representative "provided humanitarian support from the United States to enhance the reunification initiative's outcome".

"Seven additional children – six boys and one girl – have been reunited with their families in Ukraine," the White House reported.

Details:

• In August, Melania Trump raised the issue of Ukrainian children in Russia in a personal letter to Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin. US President Donald Trump had personally delivered the letter to Putin during their talks in Alaska.
• Afterwards, the US first lady said she has an "open channel of communication" with Putin regarding the return of abducted Ukrainian children.
• It was due to the forcible transfer of children from occupied areas of Ukraine that the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Putin in 2023.
