The United States will continue to supply weapons to Ukraine only if it participates in peace talks.
US President Donald Trump is considering Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg retired as a possible special agent for the settlement of Russia’s war with Ukraine. Several sources reported this to the news agency. Reuters.
Kellogg, former head of the White House National Security Council and national security adviser Vice President Mike Pence (retd supporter of Ukraine) during Trump’s presidency, he could play a key role in trying to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine if he is appointed.
The Kellogg Plan
According to Reuters, Kellogg presented a strategy based on Trump frozen hostility in the current conditions. The plan includes getting Kyiv and Moscow to start talks through US mediation.
Kellogg worked on this campaign with by Fred Fleitzwho previously held a similar position on the National Security Council under Trump.

In addition, the issue of Ukraine’s accession to NATO will be removed from the agenda, which, according to the authors of the plan, should reduce tension between the parties.
However, Kellogg is not the only contender for the post of special ambassador. Other candidates being considered include Richard Grenell, Trump’s former acting director of national intelligence. Grenell remains a strong candidate for the position, according to sources familiar with the selection process.
Grenell has been proposing the creation of “independent zones” as a way to resolve the conflict. His proposal was made at a roundtable discussion at Bloomberg in July this year.
Trump officials have so far declined to comment. Transition team spokeswoman Caroline Levitt said team decisions will be announced personally by Donald Trump.
Kellogg, 80, declined to comment on the situation.
Ukraine does not currently have a special ambassador position, but Trump is likely to create one once he takes office, according to Reuters. The appointment of a special representative would show the desire of the new administration to be more actively involved in solving the conflict, which is still one of the main international problems.
Kellogg’s application, according to analysts, indicates Trump’s intention to use certified personnel from his previous administration to carry out diplomatic tasks.
