US Involvement in Ukraine: Expert Warns of Escalation Dangers

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has raised many questions about the role of international actors. Kit Kellogg, a prominent figure in foreign policy, recently offered insight into the US's continued involvement. In a short video clip, Kellogg argues that the risk of escalation necessitates the US's presence. He uses the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand as a stark reminder of how seemingly minor events can trigger major conflicts. 'When the assassin of Archduke Ferdinand killed him, he never thought in the back of his mind, "Well, I'm going to start World War One," ' Kellogg states, highlighting the unpredictable nature of escalation. This underscores the necessity for careful consideration of de-escalation strategies to prevent further turmoil. Kellogg's analysis provides a valuable perspective on the complexities of the Ukrainian conflict and the delicate balance of international intervention.
