US First Lady Melania Trump says women who make accusations of sexual abuse "need to be heard" and supported - but so do men.
She said on Wednesday that when there are allegations there needs to be "really hard evidence" and accusers should "show the evidence".
"I do stand with women, but we need to show the evidence. You cannot just say to somebody, 'I was sexually assaulted,' or, 'You did that to me,' because sometimes the media goes too far, and the way they portray some stories it's, it's not correct, it's not right," she said.
Mrs Trump was interviewed on a trip to Kenya by US TV network ABC and asked whether she supports the #MeToo movement.
