MELANIA Trump has written a “peace letter” to Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin, urging him to protect future generations around the world.
The US First Lady’s passionate plea was hand-delivered to the warmongering despot at Friday’s Alaska summit.

The letter, which was obtained by Fox News Digital, was read by Putin as the American and Russian delegations looked on.
It reads: “Dear President Putin. Every child shares the same quiet dreams in their heart, whether born randomly into a nation’s rustic countryside or a magnificent city-center.
“They dream of love, possibility, and safety from danger.
“As parents, it is our duty to nurture the next generation’s hope.
“As leaders, the responsibility to sustain our children extends beyond the comfort of a few.
“Undeniably, we must strive to paint a dignity-filled world for all—so that every soul may wake to peace, and so that the future itself is perfectly guarded.
“A simple yet profound concept, Mr. Putin, as I am sure you agree, is that each generation’s descendants begin their lives with a purity—an innocence which stands above geography, government, and ideology.”
The First Lady further wrote that “in today’s world, some children are forced to carry a quiet laughter, untouched by the darkness around them—a silent defiance against the forces that can potentially claim their future.”
“Mr. Putin, you can singlehandedly restore their melodic laughter.
“In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone—you serve humanity itself.”
It comes as Friday’s peace summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin ended with no deal being reached.
Trump told reporters after the meeting that “some great progress” had been made, but that there’s “no deal until there’s a deal”.
He said: “There were many, many points that we agreed on, most of them, I would say.
“A couple of big ones that we haven’t quite gotten there, but we’ve made some headway.”
Putin also described the talks as “very frank and substantive” – amplifying fears that Ukraine will be forced to surrender territory to Moscow in exchange for peace.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to meet with Trump in Washington tomorrow to further discuss the peace process.
In a post on X, he wrote: “We see that Russia rebuffs numerous calls for a ceasefire and has not yet determined when it will stop the killing.
“This complicates the situation… But together we are working for peace and security.”
Zelensky trip to the White House tomorrow will be his first since a fiery showdown with with Trump and Vice President JD Vance in February that horrified Ukraine‘s European allies.
It is understood that Putin has demanded the eastern Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk – together known as Donbas – in their entirety.
He has reportedly pledged to halt further advances in the southern Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions in exchange for land in Donetsk not currently occupied by Russia.
But President Zelensky have so far refused to cede Donbas to Russia, saying such a move would allow Putin to “start a third war” in Ukraine.
The US has also reportedly proposed a framework that would not see Ukraine join NATO, but would be given protections similar to the Article 5 mutual defence clause.
Ukraine has long sought NATO membership for protection against Moscow, but this is vehemently opposed by Russia.
Has the Alaska summit helped broker a peace deal?
AS Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin both flew out of Alaska on Friday it appeared as though the summit was an utter failure in the eyes of Ukraine.
There had been no agreements on a peace deal as Trump appeared to be hesitant to truly reveal what demands Putin was making.
But a few hours after the meeting ended Trump took to social media to reveal the meeting was a success in his eyes.
Trump said Russia and Ukraine both believe a full peace deal is “the best way” to end the war – rather than a short term ceasefire.
Now diplomatic sources have revealed some of the initial details of the potential agreement, according to news agency AFP.
The US has reportedly proposed an agreement that would see Ukraine not join Nato – but instead be offered Nato-esque protections similar to Article 5.
Article 5 on Nato’s founding treaty agrees collective defense – meaning allies see an attack on one as an attack on all of them.
Trump reportedly floated the plan with Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders during a call after his meeting with Putin.
The US President is set to discuss the terms of an agreement with Zelensky on Monday when he travels to the White House.
Zelensky did not directly address any potential plan but he did say on X: “We discussed positive signals from the American side regarding participation in guaranteeing security for Ukraine.”
