Melania Trump Hints at Ukraine Visit After Ceasefire Claim
First Lady Melania Trump said she may travel to Ukraine after the White House credited her with brokering a local cease-fire in the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, which is scheduled to begin on October 29. The White House announced the cease-fire, set for October 29, to allow humanitarian aid and evacuations, noting that Ukrainian and Russian officials were coordinating timing.
Earlier reports said Melania Trump helped arrange the pause, with Vatican officials noting Pope Francis also took part, a claim the Vatican later disputed. The first lady and adviser Marc Beckman have asserted she single-handedly secured the cease-fire, a view contested by the Kremlin and the Vatican.
