Keith Kellogg, the special envoy for Ukraine appointed by former President Donald Trump, has reportedly been sidelined from ongoing negotiations regarding the conflict in Ukraine. According to a report by Politico, his role in the discussions has come under scrutiny, with sources indicating that he was not present at recent talks held in Saudi Arabia. While some officials have expressed uncertainty about Kellogg's future involvement, others have denied claims made by anonymous sources suggesting his removal from the negotiations. The shift in focus appears to be towards other figures in the administration, including Marco Rubio and Mike Waltz, as they take a more prominent role in the peace talks. This development follows the U.S. decision to abandon Kellogg's ceasefire plan from April 2024 in favor of a new strategy proposed by French President Emmanuel Macron and UK leader Keir Starmer, which includes a no-fly zone.
