In her first television interview, broadcast on Friday, First Lady Melania Trump discusses her role in the White House and the #MeToo movement.

The sit-down with Tom Llamas of ABC News, which happened while she toured Africa, was teased on Wednesday on "Good Morning America".

When asked what was the most surprising thing about her first-lady job, Trump said she was disappointed to find associations that refused to work with her.

"It is sad to see that the organizations and foundations with which I wish to work in partnership choose not to do so because of … the administration," she said, "and I have the impression that they choose politics rather than helping others. "

Trump refused to give examples and said the groups "know who they are, I do not want to expose them to the world, but they know who they are."

Trump also shared his thoughts on #MeToo, which seemed to boil down to supporting women when their claims can be supported by evidence.

"I support women and they need to be heard," she said. "We have to support them, as well as men, not just women."

And it appeared, as her husband often does, that she thinks the media could do better. When asked if the men accused of assault or misconduct in the news had been treated unfairly, Trump said: "You need to have really solid evidence, that if you charge something, show the evidence. "

In clarifying her position, she said, "I stand beside women, but we must show evidence.You can not just tell someone:" I have been sexually assaulted, "or "you did me that", because sometimes the media goes too far, and the way they describe certain stories, it is not correct. This is not correct. "

"Being Melania – The First Lady" airs on ABC Friday (10 pm ET).
