Melania Trump is scheduled to bring together representatives from Russia and Ukraine at the White House on 5 November, according to a statement issued by the White House. The statement says the first lady initiated contact between the two countries, which reportedly led to a ceasefire in Olesjky and surrounding areas in the Kherson region. The ceasefire claim has not been independently confirmed. The White House described the initiative as “unprecedented” for an American first lady. Trump is set to give a speech about the alleged ceasefire at 11 a.m. local time on Thursday.
