Le Monde publishes an investigation revealing that Russian and Ukrainian intelligence services prepared and negotiated the Oleshky evacuation mission, but it was presented to the public as the result of mediation by U.S. first lady Melania Trump. Sources in Ukraine and Kyiv tell the newspaper the actual extent of Washington's role remains unclear.
“It's not known exactly what role Washington played.”
