Retired Vice Admiral Keith Kerogg, President Donald Trump's envoy for Ukraine, appeared in New Smax on Thursday to discuss the president's economic strategy.
For exterior “Records with Gretta Van Steren” said Kerogg's economic strategy to operate the world's oil market to reduce the Russian economy. According to Kerogg, this strategy was one of the results of meeting with President Ukrainian Voldimil Zelenceky and Trump at Trump Tower last year.
“It was different where the president came from, and he said he had to stop the slaughter,” Kerogg said.
“But I think the place he pivot is very wise. He has pivoted economics. For example, when he talked about the price of oil, when he talked about the price of oil, you are petroleum. For example, lowering $ 45 per barrel is a kind of destructive point, and you really hurt the Russian economy.
Kerogg stated that the tactics aimed not only trying to make Russia economically weakened, but also aiming to leave further blood to economic negotiations.
“So, sanctions, sanctions placed in Russia, and when you look at the price of oil, it could really start to hurt,” Kerogg said. “And it's really where you really need to start thinking about it. You don't intend to kill your way from this war, so Greta, you're not just. You have to kill it. No, the economic part begins.
Kerogg has also shared insights about Trump and Zelenceky meetings. There, an economic solution that he said was advantageous to the two countries was discussed.
“President Trump, when he met Zelenceky at Trump Tower last September, we think we can solve good things on both sides, and he's absolutely right, and he's it. I think he is the only person who can do this to conclude. “And he intends to work hard on it. We talked to a lot of principal, but when verbally or see it, I think Putin may not be ready in the media. “
At a meeting last year, Trump told a reporter who wanted to see the end of the dispute and “fair trading” with Zelenceky.
“It should stop, the President (Zelenskyy) wants to stop, and Putin is convinced that it will stop. That's a good combination,” Trump said. (Related: Report: The term of Biden is gone, and taxpayers provide funds to Ukraine)
