oFFICE OF THE fIRSt lADY

First Lady Melania Trump has helped reunite a fifth group of Ukrainian and Russian children with their loved ones, continuing her humanitarian work on behalf of those affected by the war. A total of five children were reunited today.

This milestone marks another step toward ensuring that innocent kids can safely return to their homes, communities, and the people who care for them.

The First Lady remarked, "While diplomacy and peacebuilding are important to this effort, they are surpassed by our collective ability to place children above international disputes. Every reunion is a reminder that compassion, dignity, and family can transcend even the darkest of times: war. My representative and I continue working with the governments of Russia and Ukraine to safely return children to their families and communities."

The First Lady's leadership has bridged political divides in pursuit of a singular humanitarian mission: placing the well-being of children above conflict and helping restore families torn apart by war.
