‘I’m on Trump time:’ Kellogg says Russia-Ukraine peace plan could come in days or weeks
CNBC ^ | 2/15/2025 | Karen Gilchrist

U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Ukraine and Russia Keith Kellogg said Saturday that a peace plan for the two warring nations could come within days or weeks.

“I’m on Trump time,” Kellogg told delegates at a fringe event at the Munich Security Conference, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump’s famed fast-moving decision making.

“He’ll ask you to do this job today and he’ll want to know tomorrow why isn’t it solved,” said Kellogg, a key negotiator for Ukraine and allied nations in the recently tabled peace talks.

“You got to give us a bit of breathing space and time, but when I say that, I’m not talking six months, I’m talking days and weeks,” he said.

Kellogg said there was currently a “dual-track” approach to peace talks, with U.S. representatives liaising with Russia, and separately with Ukraine and allied nations. Kellogg, for his part, said he was working on behalf of the latter grouping and insisted — contrary to earlier U.S. suggestions — that both Ukraine and Europe must be a part of those talks.

Listening to Graham and Shanneen, talking at NATO, they’re on board with dumping more Taxpayer $$$$ into the shit-hole (Ukraine). Linda is hell-bent on keeping his military kickbacks, and his TDS is showing.

I didn’t realize the Senators were over there creating their usual chaos with the situation. I saw a photo last night of them and before I could see who exactly was in it, I said to myself that Linda must be there. And lo and behold there she was right in the middle of the picture.

Trump’s envoy Keith Kellogg at the 8th Ukrainian Lunch at the Munich Security Conference:

◼️We have achieved more progress in 30 days than the previous administration in three years.

◼️We have to secure Ukraine’s sovereignty. European allies will play a significant role in this.

◼️No one will be excluded from the Ukraine negotiation process – but it is impossible not to talk with Putin.

◼️Ukraine’s security guarantees require a collective vision – not just from Americans, but from all allies.

◼️It’s difficult to say what the peace talks will look like, but the goal is to stop the killing and the war. Ukrainians and Russians will be at the table, with Americans as mediators.

◼️European interests will be represented in the negotiations, but Europeans won’t be at the table “in person”.

▪️ A ceasefire and a peace treaty are not success for Ukraine. The definition of success will be when the ceasefire is violated for the first time and how all parties react

▪️The war in Ukraine must end sooner than a year. I publicly take 180 days to involve all parties

▪️We have made more progress in resolving the war in 30 days than the Biden administration has in three years

▪️In the negotiations, I am responsible for the direction of Ukraine, and Special Representative Witkoff is responsible for the direction of the Russian Federation.

▪️Different options for security guarantees for Ukraine are being considered, but the final decision will be up to Trump

▪️Ukraine’s losses in the war with the Russian Federation are three times higher than the US losses in Vietnam and Korea combined. Trump wants to stop this.

▪️The US will be a mediator between the Ukrainians and the Russians. It is still difficult to say what the peace negotiations will look like.

It’s so great and refreshing to hear team Trump acknowledging who is calling the shots.

Unlike his first admin which was riddled with azzholes who thought they knew better. Pompeo, Milley, “T-Rex”, both AGs, and the rest of the deep state tools.

Geez! Again, disregard anything this guy says. He has fulfilled his mission well. He was making ridiculous, outrageous remarks, as was Trump, to distract and titillate the outage machines on both sides. Meanwhile, the real negotiations are in full swing on the QT.

It’s the same thing in Gaza. Trump is going to occupy Gaza! Again, off goes the outrage machine down that rabbit hole while real negotiations are ongoing with the Iranians and Russia. As in Ukraine, the biggest obstacle to an Iranian deal is our shadow state satrap.

Democrats were the greatest supporters of senile Joe’s Ukie war. Says alot about them….but then they all fell for senile Joe’s MRNA Covid vax hoax, shutdowns, masks, etc….

I remember not to long ago all the ones wearing masks had all the Ukie flags and stickers…..they were all fooled, easily tricked by a senile old man in the WH.

Biden slow walking aid was no friend of Ukraine. Real Republicans like Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana support Ukraine.

Foolish Moscow stooges like delta7 support Bolshevik aggression and Moscow’s allies like Hamas, North Korea, and Iran.
