Direct speech: “I think both sides are ready. It’s like a cage fight where two fighters want to knock each other out, but you need a referee to stop it. I think President Donald Trump can be that referee.”
He noted that historically Russia has fought using a strategy of mass attacks, resulting in heavy losses on both sides. “It’s a classic war of attrition,” Kellogg says.
According to Kellogg, the war has already led to colossal losses: about 350,000-400,000 Russian soldiers and 150,000 Ukrainian soldiers. He believes that this is the moment when both sides should “take a step back” and start negotiations.
The special representative says Trump will broker peace talks and fulfill a campaign promise.

Earlier on Wednesday, Kellogg criticized the liquidation of Russian Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov in Moscow. In his opinion, this is not an obstacle to “peace negotiations” between Ukraine and Russia, but it may violate the rules of warfare.
