US President-elect Donald Trump’s special representative for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, plans to visit Kyiv and several European capitals in early January. The purpose of the trip is information gathering, not active negotiations. About this informs Reuters.
Kellogg will meet with high-ranking Ukrainian officials in Kyiv. In addition, his team is currently working on organizing meetings with European leaders in Rome and Paris. At the same time, Moscow is not included in the itinerary of his visit. Trip planning is still ongoing and the itinerary is subject to change.
This initiative shows the desire of Donald Trump to speed up the end of the war between Ukraine and Russia. He previously claimed to have made some progress in this direction. Trump noted that he received signals from the Ukrainian side about the desire to end the war, and plans to discuss this issue with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
According to the conviction of the newly elected US president, the number of victims on both sides exceeds the officially announced data. It was previously reported that he intends to achieve a truce on the first day of his presidency, although his team has not yet presented a specific plan.
