<p>It’s the season of letters about war, peace, and children. First Lady Melania Trump wrote a letter to Russia’s President Putin asking him to help bring about peace so as to protect the children and future generations around the globe. The letter was hand-delivered to Putin by President Trump during their meeting in Alaska on August 15.</p>



<p>The First Lady’s letter did not include any blame or politically biased narrative surrounding child safety in the war zone. But media in the U.S. and the globalist west were quick to put a political twist on her letter and peddle the Russophobic narrative that Russia abducted Ukrainian children from the border regions, particularly the two Donbas regions, as they launched a war against Ukraine. The <em>Associated Press</em> (AP), for example, wrote in its story about the First Lady’s letter:</p>



<p><em>Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has resulted in Russia taking Ukrainian children out of their country so that they can be raised as Russian.</em></p>



<p>This anti-Russian narrative has been parroted many times without evidence as documented accounts from people of the Donbas region itself have countered the claims. The ethnic Russians in these former regions of Ukraine, now taken and annexed by Russia, blame Ukrainian military aggression in their areas since 2014 when the region declared independence from Ukraine. The independence measure came as a NATO-sponsored coup under the Obama-Biden foreign policy overthrew the legitimate government in Ukraine and replaced it with their proxy.</p>



<p>This historical fact was reflected in a letter addressed to Melania Trump by a schoolgirl from Lugansk, one of the two Donbas regions (the other being Donetsk) that were formerly part of Ukraine and are now part of Russia. As reported in <em>EADaily</em> (August 18), 16-year-old Faina Savenkova wrote a letter to Mrs. Trump to inform her that the Ukrainian government is responsible for the sufferings of war in the Donbas region. Her letter says:</p>



<p><em>“I am like a child who has been living under the shelling of the Ukrainian army for 11 years, I want to tell you that in order to stop the conflict and save the children in Donbass and on Ukraine, first of all, needs to turn to Vladimir Zelensky.”</em></p>



<p>The story reported that when Faina was 13 in 2021, she recorded a video message to the United Nations asking them to ensure the safety of children in her region against the Kiev regime’s atrocities. The Zelensky regime reacted by listing her and her relatives as domestic extremists. Faina wrote in her letter to Mrs. Trump:</p>



<p><em>“We have been trying to survive under Ukrainian shelling for too long, and now our dream is simple — help us see the peaceful sky above our heads.”</em></p>



<p>After her letter to the U.S. First Lady, Faina told Russian channel RT (Russia Today) that Melania Trump’s letter did not mention the fact that the responsibility of the death of children in Donbas primarily rests on the shoulders of the Zelensky regime in Kiev. Faina said she sent the letter via email to the White House and her journalist friends in U.S have also shared it on their social media pages.</p>

<p>On Wednesday (August 20), former UN Weapons Inspector and American military intelligence official Scott Ritter posted his interview with Russian lawmaker Yana Lantratova, who shared her personal story of rescuing children from Ukrainian aggression in the Donbass region in 2014. Lantratova at that time was the mother of a baby boy and worked as a social worker. She detailed her rescue efforts that started with a letter to the newly planted Ukrainian government to let her organization a safe passage so as to take the children out of the areas that were under shelling by the Ukrainian regime of the time.</p>

<p>What happened in 2014 was repeated by the Kiev regime in 2022 in the Russo-Ukraine war. The ethnic Russian children had to be removed from hostile Ukrainian attacks and across the border into Russia to safe places. In areas where Ukrainians have been defeated and pushed out, children have been reunited with their parents, unharmed and in good shape and spirits. In a <em>New York Post</em> story in 2023, the children returned and reunited with their parents reportedly thanked Russian soldiers for saving their lives.</p>
