Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Keith Kellogg, a hardliner against Russia’s ally Communist China and an advocate of defeating enemies strategically without war if possible, has been chosen by Donald Trump as his assistant and special envoy to Ukraine and Russia.
Kellogg, who hopes to end the conflict between Ukraine and Russia without an all-out world war, will now be in a position to test his proposals and hopefully save American troops from involvement in a bloody war. Trump praised Kellogg’s “peace through strength” approach.
Trump’s TruthSocial statement Wednesday said, “I am very pleased to nominate General Keith Kellogg to serve as Assistant to the President and Special Envoy for Ukraine and Russia. Keith has led a distinguished Military and Business career, including serving in highly sensitive National Security roles in my first Administration. He was with me right from the beginning! Together, we will secure PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH, and Make America, and the World, SAFE AGAIN!”
The Army veteran co-authored an April report arguing that the USA should use its extremely generous aid packages and weapons donations to Ukraine as leverage for insisting on peace talks to bring the conflict with Russia to a close.
