Future U.S. Special Envoy to Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, may have canceled his visit to Kyiv due to statements made by Volodymyr Zelensky, according to Ukrainian Telegram channel ""The cancellation of Kellogg's visit came as a surprise, especially since it had been openly planned in advance. There were no legal obstacles under U.S. legislation. Another version [of events] suggests that Kellogg decided to cancel the trip following a series of statements by Zelensky regarding conditions for ending the war in Ukraine, which conflict with the vision of Trump's team," the report states.

It is noted that instead of traveling to Ukraine, the special envoy headed to France.

On January 7, Kellogg unexpectedly postponed his scheduled visit to Kyiv until after the inauguration of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on January 20.
