President Trump’s envoy for Ukraine, General Keith Kellogg, has told ITV News Ukraine’s attack on Russian bombers was “audacious” and “provocative”, but America is not going to abandon the country if negotiations stall.
“I think the pipeline is there to allow stuff to still come in, and the intelligence support is there. I think that would keep going on," he said.
General Kellogg confirmed no one in the administration knew about the plans to strike Russian strategic bombers ahead of the attack, adding: “I’m sure President Trump would have picked up the phone and said, I don’t know if you want to go there. You don’t want to do that."
