US President's Special Envoy Keith Kellogg said that partners should help Ukraine with reconstruction by implementing their own "Marshall Plan" for it.
This is reported by Ukrinform.
Thus, Kellogg stressed the importance of rebuilding Ukraine and recalled how, after the end of World War II, the United States introduced the Marshall Plan for Europe.
"And I think we should do the same for Ukraine," he said.
At the same time, he emphasized that the situation is very difficult now, so a ceasefire needs to be achieved. He also highly praised the actions of Zelenskyy and his team "for how smart they acted."
"As a former soldier, it is difficult for me to understand the level of violence that you are currently seeing in Ukraine... When you lose over a million soldiers, this is murder on an industrial scale," Kellogg said.
He recalled that the United States Army withdrew from Vietnam, having lost 68,000 soldiers there. According to him, then the US said: "Stop! Just stop!".
In addition, the US President's Special Envoy particularly focused on the topic of the return of Ukrainian children. US President Donald Trump, according to him, is concerned about this problem, so he insisted in conversations with Volodymyr Zelenskyy that it should be one of the points of negotiations with the russians – and the President of Ukraine agreed.
The US Special Envoy also addressed the Ukrainian military who were present in the hall: "What you are doing today will become a legend tomorrow."
Reference. The Marshall Plan is a program of assistance to European countries to restore their economies and infrastructure after World War II.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in the meantime, the President of the United States of America Donald Trump said that he was dissatisfied with the large-scale air attack by the army of the aggressor country russia on Ukraine using more than seven hundred UAVs.
