New US President Donald Trump continues to fulfill his pre-election promises. One of the main tasks he set for his administration is to end Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. To achieve this, Trump appointed a special representative for Ukraine – retired Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg. He has an ambitious goal of achieving peace within 100 days.
Negotiations with Russia: the beginning of a complex path
According to data published in The Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump will personally oversee the peace negotiation process. However, sources of the publication note that the task is extremely challenging, especially considering the position of the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
Trump has repeatedly stated that the conflict could be resolved even before the official start of his presidency. During his election campaign, he claimed that it would only take one day. However, reality indicates that reaching agreements with the Kremlin will be much more difficult.
Keith Kellogg: a key figure in Trump’s plans
Retired Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg has been appointed as a special representative for Ukraine. Trump believes he will be a reliable executor of the president’s instructions. However, experts emphasize that Kellogg will not have a significant influence on policy, as all decisions will be made in the White House.
According to WSJ sources, Kellogg does not have his own strategy or vision for resolving the conflict. His main task will be to carry out Trump’s directives aimed at organizing negotiations and initial steps towards peace.
Visit to China: diplomacy at the highest level
Alongside the plans to end the war in Ukraine, Trump has also announced his intention to visit China within the first 100 days of his presidency. Sources report that discussions are already taking place in the White House regarding a future meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
The aim of this diplomatic mission will be to improve relations between the USA and China. Additionally, the possibility of inviting Xi Jinping to the United States is being discussed, which could be a significant event for the new Trump administration.
Conclusion
Donald Trump is starting his presidency with bold initiatives that promise to have a serious impact on world politics. Ending the war in Ukraine and visiting China are not just ambitious plans, but also challenges that will require diplomatic skill and strategic approach. In the coming months, it will become clear whether the new president can fulfill his promises and change the course of events on a global scale.
