US Envoy Kellogg visits Ukraine amid talks on security, defense cooperation

US Special Representative Keith Kellogg has arrived in Ukraine for high-level talks, Ukrainian presidential chief of staff Andriy Yermak announced on Monday. 

In a post on Telegram, Yermak said the visit would focus on a wide range of issues, including defense, security, arms cooperation, sanctions, and support for Ukrainian citizens amid Russia’s ongoing invasion.

“There are many topics to be discussed - defense, strengthening security, armaments, sanctions, protecting our people, strengthening cooperation between Ukraine and the United States,” Yermak wrote.

He also voiced support for US President Donald Trump’s stance on global security, saying Ukraine backs the principle of “peace through strength” - a phrase long associated with Trump’s foreign policy approach.
