Addressing Violence Against Children of Leaders

My children have suffered shaming and violence simply

because they are the children of the prime minister.

We must condemn personal attacks on children in any

setting,

whether in person or ongoing online.

I see this gathering as a bond of responsibility

between nations, between women leaders, and between

mothers who understand that the best way to build

a stronger future is the, um, invest--

is to invest in our children today.

First Lady Melania, thank you for this important event.

May our shared effort help children all over the world to

learn better, grow more, m- grow more

safely, and flourish with hope. Thank you very much.
