Trump Appoints Special Envoy for War in Ukraine: What is Known About Him

Keith Kellogg, 80, is one of the authors of the “peace plan” that includes freezing the front lines and forcing Kyiv and Moscow to negotiate.

Donald Trump has appointed Keith Kellogg, a retired lieutenant general who presented him with a “peace plan” to end the war , as his special envoy to Ukraine , Reuters reported  , citing its sources, and Trump himself later confirmed on his Truth Social network.

“Keith has had a distinguished military and business career, including serving in very important national security positions in my first Administration. Together, we will secure peace through strength and make America and the world safe again,” Trump wrote.

While there is currently no special representative for the war in Ukraine, Trump has previously privately expressed interest in creating such a position.

Keith Kellogg and the “peace plan” for Ukraine

Keith Kellogg (born 1944) was the White House National Security Council chief of staff during the Trump presidency from 2017–21 and national security adviser to then-Vice President Mike Pence.

Kellogg developed his “peace plan” for Ukraine with Fred Fleitz, who also served as Trump’s National Security Council chief of staff. The plan involves freezing the front lines and forcing Kiev and Moscow to negotiate .

Under the proposed strategy, the United States would tell Ukraine that it would receive more American weapons only if it entered into peace talks. At the same time, the United States would warn Moscow that any refusal to negotiate would result in increased U.S. support for Ukraine. Ukraine’s membership in NATO would be off the table for the foreseeable future.

Reuters previously reported that Trump plans to appoint his former intelligence chief Richard Grenell , who has advocated creating “autonomous zones” as a way to end the war and has also said he would not support Ukraine joining NATO, as a special envoy to Russia’s war in Ukraine.

        • The orange administration wants to freeze the frontlines and force a peace, but mafia land doesn’t want this. I wonder what the orange administration will do about that.

          • I doubt they have any kind of plan. Destroying the russian economy will give putler no choice to withdraw from Ukraine. It just needs a bit more will from the EU and the US.

            • Oh, brother. Will and Europe doesn’t go together very well. Will and the US doesn’t either.

          • And what if it works? We both know Vladolf will violate any agreement so then what? Trump, as promised, would arm the shit out of Ukraine. That’s a bad thing? Don’t be so myopic bro, you’re too clever for that.
            And about the 24-hour plan that all the Lefties are afraid of, what if Trump decided to let Ukraine join NATO if Vladolf violated a ceasefire?
            Don’t use Scradje’s crystal ball, its been wrong for years 🙂

            • My hope rests on the stubbornness of both Trump and the war criminal … that Trump seeks a quick end but the runt wants to conquer all of Ukraine. This will force Trump to abandon his 24 hr. plan. He then has three choices; abandon Ukraine and let the runt have it (unlikely), keep the current aid where it is, or arm Ukraine to the teeth and other measures that will hurt the runt.
              What will he do?

  1. The Kellogg-Fleitz plan is a putrefying piece of putinoid turd that is getting another polishing.
    America’s new CEO : Ivan Muscovy, has stated his opposition to Biden’s request for $24 billion for Ukraine, Jr has stated that Ukraine’s “allowance” is coming to an end, Gabbarova heads up intel, VanZkov is VP and now this turd-polisher has been hired.
    The putinaZIs are advancing quicker than at any time since the start of the putler holocaust, a left-populist putinoid skank is joining the German coalition, Romania might be about to augment the EU-Nato’s putler bloc and a powerful pro-ruZZia govt is about to take over the US.
    Could things get any worse for Ukraine?
    Hoping and praying for a miracle ……..
