“Dear president Putin,” begins the letter from the first lady. “Each child shares the same quiet dreams in his heart, whether he was born at random in the rustic countryside of a nation or a magnificent city center. They dream of love, possibility and safety of danger.”
“As parents, it is our duty to feed the hope of the next generation,” continued the letter. “As managers, the responsibility to support our children extends beyond the comfort of a few.”
“Undeniably, we must strive to paint a world filled with dignity for all – so that each soul can wake up to peace, and that the future itself is perfectly kept,” reads the letter. “A simple but deep concept, Mr. Putin, as I am sure that you agree, is that the descendants of each generation begin their lives with purity – an innocence which is above geography, government and ideology.”
The First Lady continued that “in today’s world, some children are forced to wear a quiet laugh, intact by the darkness that surrounds them – a silent distrust of forces that can potentially claim their future”.

“Mr. Putin, you can restore their melodic laugh alone,” wrote the first lady. “By protecting the innocence of these children, you will more than serve Russia alone – you serve humanity itself.”
