Content and Message of the "Letter of Peace"
First lady Melania Trump sends a strong letter to Putin:
„Każdechildma w sercu te same ciche marzenia, niezależnie od tego, czy urodziło się przypadkowo na wiejskiej prowincji, czy w wielkim mieście. Marzy o miłości, możliwościach i bezpieczeństwie przed niebezpieczeństwem”.
"As parents, we have a duty to cultivate the hope of the next generation. As leaders, our responsibility to give children a good life goes beyond the comfort of few."
"There is no doubt that we must strive to create a world of dignity for all – so that every soul can wake up in peace and the future is perfectly protected."
"A simple but profound concept, Mr Putin, with which you will surely agree, is that the descendants of each generation begin their lives in purity – innocence that surpasses geography, government and ideology."
"But in today's world, some children are forced to laugh silently, untouched by the darkness surrounding them—a silent rebellion against forces that could potentially take their future. Mr. Putin, you can bring back their melodic laughter yourself."
"By protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than just serve Russia – you serve all mankind. Such a bold idea transcends all divisions between people, and you, Mr Putin, are able to realize this vision with one stroke of a feather today."
"The time has come."
She pointed out that protecting children's innocence was a concern "exceeding geography, government or ideology." Trump's words refer to universal values and transnational needs, using emotions and examples of everyday life – from a child in a village to a resident of a large city.
