Bana Alabed, who at 7 years old could be considered "the smallest reporter in the world", for the messages she sent through Twitter discovering the agony that children live in Aleppo, as well shown by the images of them that shake the world, now he wrote to Donald Trump to advocate for them.

The young woman, who is another of the girls who survived the iron battles that are fought in that city, escaped with her family and currently lives in Turkey. However, that has not allowed her to forget the other children who did not suffer the same fate.

In her letter to the American President, after introducing herself, the little girl explains: “I am part of the Syrian children who have suffered from the Syrian war.

But right now, I am having a peace in my new home in Turkey. In Aleppo, I was at school, but it was soon destroyed by bombing.

Some of my friends died.

I am very sad for them and I would like them to be with me because we would play together now. I couldn't play in Aleppo, because it was the city of death”.

Bana also describes how although she can now go out and enjoy Turkey, millions of Syrian children cannot do so in her country: "They are suffering from adults," he says. Then she explains how she can help the children of Aleppo:

Could you please save the children and people of Syria? I should do something for the children of Syria, because they are like your children and deserve peace like you. If you promise me that you will make something for the children of Syria, I am already your new friend.”

As reported by the BBC London news network, the President of the United States has repeatedly stressed his desire to maintain a strong relationship with Russia and his counterpart Vladimir Putin is an ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

"I should do something for the children of Syria," says the girl in her letter, "because they are like your children and deserve peace like you."

Of the at least 300,000 killed in the six-year conflict that tears Syria apart, at least 15,000 are children. At the end of last year, little Bana became popular for tweeting, with her mom's help, about her daily hell in Aleppo. Through these messages she denounced the harsh living conditions of that Syrian city.

President Trump, for his part, signed a decree on Wednesday afternoon ordering the construction of a wall on the border between Mexico and the United States. According to different reports published by different media, it is expected that by tomorrow, for the sake of national security, he will also sign an executive order that would reduce the number of refugees that could be received in the United States and block Syrians and other citizens. entry into the United States by countries linked to terrorism, at least indefinitely.
