Trump's special beam Kit Kellog proposed creating control zones in Ukraine - "almost like in Berlin after the Second World War"
Special envoy of the US President Donald Trump in Ukraine and Russia Kit Kellog in an interview with the British newspaper The Times suggested that several zones of control appear in Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire.
“It might look almost like in Berlin after the Second World War, when there was a Russian zone, the French zone, the British zone and the American zone,” said 80-year-old retired general Keith Kellogue. He emphasized that the US authorities will not send ground forces to Ukraine.
- Kelllog's proposal suggests that the British and French troops along with the Ukrainian as “security forces” will occupy the control zone in the west of Ukraine and up to the Dnieper River. Judging by the map prepared by The Times, Lviv, Odessa and Kyiv will include this zone, among other things.
- Directly into the Ukrainian zone of control, as follows from the map of the publication, the territories in the north and east of Ukraine, including Sumy, Kharkov, the Dnieper and Zaporozhye, will be included.
- The Russian control area will include occupied territories in the east.
- Between the Russian and Ukrainian zone there will be a demilitarized zone with a length of 30 kilometers along the existing control lines in the east.
The Times noted that, according to Keith Kellog, the Anglo-French troops west of the Dnieper River “will not provoke” Moscow at all. He noted that Ukraine is a fairly large country to accommodate several armies that strive to ensure the observance of the ceasefire. KELLLOL believes that the demilitarized zone will be easy to control: “Will there be violations? Perhaps because they are always there. But watching it is very easy. ”
Keith’s plan, notes The Times, suggests that the United States recognizes the “actual control of Russia over the territory that they now occupy.” In an interview with the publication, Kellogs admitted that Russian President Vladimir Putin “may not accept” a proposal for control zones.
In their publication, the authors of The Times called Kelllog's plan “section” of Ukraine that the general himself rejected in a statement on the social network X. Kellogs said that his words “distorted” his words: in the article of the publication:
I talked about the forces of ensuring stability after the ceasefire in support of the sovereignty of Ukraine. Speaking about the division, I meant areas or areas of responsibility of the Union forces (without American troops). I did not mean the section of Ukraine.
Russia demands that Ukraine withdraw troops from the four eastern regions - Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya - and abandoned plans to join NATO. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky refused to go to territorial concessions.
Steve Whitkoff’s specialized specialized specialized Settlement of the US President, Donald Trump, told Donald Trump that the fastest way to achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine is to provide Russia with control over the four regions of Ukraine, which it annexed in 2022. Whitkoff spoke with this position after a meeting with the special representative of the President of the Russian Federation Kirill Dmitriev in Washington, Reuters said on April 11, referring to sources.
With Whitkoff, Keith Kelloglog argued in absentia. At a meeting with Trump, he said that Ukraine is ready to agree to some conditions related to these territories, but it will never unilaterally give them completely to Russia, two Reuters sources said.
According to Reuters, the discrepancies in the Trump administration regarding the conditions that Russia puts forward to end the war, intensifies. Some Trump's associates in the Republican Party believe that Steve Whitkoff takes too pro -Russian position in this matter. At the same time, Keith, at the request of Russia, was previously removed from negotiations on a peace agreement, since he is “too close to Ukraine,” reported the NBC News TV channel in March.
War through the eyes of readers "Medusa"
Dmitry ( *Zaporozhye *). The main feeling after three years of war is immeasurable fatigue and moral exhaustion. Inside and around - universal depression, people do their job, because you need to live. Nobody believes anyone, some painful expectation of something worst is happening. There is no normal sleep, there is night time interrupted by anxiety and real raids. It seems that now the situation has become even tougher, no one regrets peaceful. There is no hope for the quick end of the war, because the Russians do not want this. The United States plays its game, the people of Ukraine do not care. The attitude towards Russia - as an absolute evil, to Ukrainian rulers - as absolute stupidity and incompetence. The world is an amorphous and indifferent substance, also tired of the war (in its own way). If there was a certain hope for sanity, then it turned out to be a deception and self -deception.
