Steve Bannon warns of world conflict that could be 'Trump's Vietnam'
Fox News
Steve Bannon warned his former boss, President-elect Donald Trump, against being pulled into an unwinnable war in Ukraine like Richard Nixon in Vietnam.
In an interview with Politico, Bannon said he is aggressively urging that Trump do so in his Inauguration Day speech, warning that the soon-to-be 47th president could be entrapped by the U.S. defense industry, the Europeans and even some of Bannon’s own friends, who he says have teamed up to push the United States to continue sending military aid to Ukraine. That includes Keith Kellogg, a retired U.S. general who Trump tapped to become special envoy to Ukraine and Russia. Danielle Wallace is a breaking news and politics reporter at Fox News Digital.

Though friends, Bannon says Kellogg is misguided in pushing that the U.S. continue sending aid to Ukraine while an agreement is sorted that includes security guarantees that make certain Russia will not launch another invasion.
A further delay in ending the three-year conflict, Bannon countered, risks the United States being pulled deeper into a war that cannot be won and runs counter to American national interests.
