“I am very excited for the upcoming trip,” stated First Lady Melania Trump. “This will not just be an opportunity to support my husband as he works on important matters of national security and foreign relations, it will also be my honor to visit and speak with women and children from different countries, with different perspectives."
The White House will release daily guidance the day before each event, and a full readout of the First Lady’s activities will be provided at the end of each day.
