Melania Trump makes history, pushes for ‘peace through education’ amid Iran firestorm

First lady Melania Trump presided over the United Nations Security Council meeting Monday, declaring that the United States "stands with all of the children throughout the world," in a historic speech calling for "peace through education," amid the U.S. military involvement in Iran.

The first lady’s speech marked the first time a first lady from any country — and the first time a sitting U.S. first lady — presided over the security council as its members consider education, technology, peace and security.
