Trump's Ukraine envoy Kellogg to leave post in January: Reuters
Gen Keith Kellogg plans to leave in January amid legal limits on envoy terms and concerns about administration coordination on Ukraine-Russia peace talks.
- General Keith Kellogg, US Special Envoy for Ukraine, plans to depart in January, removing a key advocate as European diplomats see him as a sympathetic ear; it was unclear who would replace him.
- A person with knowledge said General Keith Kellogg never intended a long tenure and grew frustrated by overlapping Ukraine policy teams, while legal limits require Senate confirmation past 360 days.
- General Keith Kellogg facilitated hostage releases from Alexander Lukashenko, briefly cut intelligence sharing with Kyiv in March, then boosted it in recent months and endorsed a ceasefire after meeting Volodymyr Zelensky in October.
- Kyiv officials view his planned exit as unwelcome as the US has yet to appoint a Senate-confirmed ambassador, complicating US diplomatic representation in Ukraine.
- Administration shifts on ceasefire and peace strategy amplify the broader impact of General Keith Kellogg's exit, as he more forcefully denounced Russian attacks and backed a ceasefire after meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
