Deputy Foreign Minister Mariana Betsa said this in a comment to Ukrinform on the sidelines of the Paris Peace Forum. “Now that Melania Trump has joined the latest initiatives, there is hope that this process can be unblocked,” Betsa said. She thanked the U.S. First Lady for her efforts and expressed hope that she would continue to provide support. As an example of effective mediation, Betsa cited Oleshky, where, with Melania Trump’s assistance, an agreement was reached on a localized ceasefire to allow the evacuation of civilians. According to her, this was preceded by months of quiet diplomacy. Betsa identified Qatar as the main mediator in efforts to bring the children back.
