Melania Trump shows up to White House summit with new companion at her side - a robot

Melania Trump arrived at the White House for an education summit with an unlikely companion by her side - a humanoid robot. On the second day of her inaugural Fostering the Future Together Global Coalition Summit on Wednesday (25 March), the first lady walked down the red carpet with a bot called Figure Three. As Ms Trump greeted representatives from more than 40 countries, including French first lady Brigitte Macron, the robot walked to the front of the room and introduced itself. “It is an honor to be here… I am grateful to be a part of this historic movement to empower children with technology,” it said, before saying “welcome” in a variety of different languages. The initiative, which Ms Trump announced last year, is aimed at improving access to education and technology for children around the world.
