First lady Melania Trump, who doesn't give public speeches often, delivered remarks on women's empowerment at the State Department's 2017 International Women of Courage awards ceremony Wednesday:
"Together with the international community, the U.S. must send a clear message that we are watching. It is therefore our duty to continue to shine the light on each miraculous victory achieved by women all capable of trying, truly leading the change to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves."
