Ukraine needs new ‘Marshall Plan’ — Kellogg

U.S. Special Representative Keith Kellogg says that international partners should help Ukraine with reconstruction by implementing their own ‘Marshall Plan’ for the country

Ukrinform reported the information.

During his speech on the importance of rebuilding Ukraine, Kellogg recalled how the U.S. rolled out the Marshall Plan in Europe after World War II.

“And I think we should do the same for Ukraine,” Kellogg said.

He described the current situation as extremely difficult and stressed the need for a ceasefire. Kellogg praised Ukraine’s president and his team “for how smart they acted.”

He also believes a ceasefire could really bring the war to an end: “As a former soldier, it’s hard for me to grasp the level of violence you’re seeing in Ukraine… When you lose over a million soldiers, that’s murder on an industrial scale.”

For reference: The Marshall Plan was a U.S. program that provided economic aid to European countries after World War II.

Its official name was the European Recovery Program, but it became known as the Marshall Plan, named after U.S. Secretary of State George Marshall, one of its key architects.

  • On Wednesday, July 9, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Keith Kellogg in Rome. They discussed weapons supplies, air defense, and sanctions against Russia.

  1.  “As a former soldier, it’s hard for me to grasp the level of violence you’re seeing in Ukraine… When you lose over a million soldiers, that’s murder on an industrial scale.”

    It’s called Genocide.

  2. Update: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived at the Ukraine Recovery Conference, which is taking place in Rome

  3. Yeah like I’m going to take advice from this guy. “Don’t follow someone who is lost”

  4. Tons of reconstruction will be required, but first give Ukraine the weapons to defend it’s skies, back them up with tremendous force to alleviate pressure on the AFU, empower Ukraine to devastate the rashist horde and drive them out of Ukraine.

  5. “When you lose over a million soldiers, that’s murder on an industrial scale.”

    ruSSia has lost over a million soldiers because of their invasion of Ukraine. That’s not murder – it’s what happens in a war.

    “As a former soldier…”

    …he should know the difference between murder (unlawful killing of a person) and killing enemy combatants.
