Trump’s Ukraine envoy Keith Kellogg speaks to wounded Ukrainian troops during ‘emotional’ visit to military hospital

US special envoy to the Ukraine war retired Gen. Keith Kellogg visited wounded Ukrainian soldiers Friday to thank them for their sacrifices, which he argued has “given us time” to figure out the “right” way to end Russia’s war on their nation.

Kellogg, who previously served as a national security adviser to the vice president and chief of staff of the National Security Council in the first Trump administration, met with about 20 veterans of the nearly three-year-long war at Irpin Military Hospital just outside of Kyiv, some of whom have suffered life-altering injuries defending Ukraine from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s forces.

“The biggest reason I wanted to come here was President Trump has said he wants to stop the killing, and you’ve got to go to the place where you see what killing looks like — what death looks like — and see young men and women who have been wounded in combat,” Kellogg told The Post.

“As a soldier, you owe them that respect,” he added. “As a leader, you owe that respect.”

Kellogg, 80, was joined by US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink at the medical facility, where Ukrainian troops with leg and arm amputations were receiving treatments and getting outfitted with prosthetics.

“given us time” to figure out the “right” way to end Russia’s war on their nation.

How about a cease-fire in place until Trump-Putin-Zelinski come to some reality-based agreement? There's been too much killing and wounding already.

That’s Cool.👍
I honor all soilders. Living in the arena of death. It’s not for everyone, and many do not have a choice. Of course there are those who thrive and excel at it.
