Zelensky dismisses Vadym Prystayko from the post of Ukrainian Ambassador to the United Kingdom – decree
Reasons for dismissal not specified
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has dismissed Vadym Prystaiko from the post of Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Ukraine to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
The respective decree was published on the president's website.
In addition, Prystayko was relieved from the position of Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the International Maritime Organisation. The reasons for dismissal are not specified in the document.
As a reminder, Prystayko previously gave a critical commentary to SkyNews regarding Zelensky's statement that Ukraine could wake up each morning and personally thank the UK's Minister of Defence, Ben Wallace, for Britain's support. The President commented in this way on Wallace's words, who urged Ukraine to be more grateful for the help it receives, and not just "constantly demanding the unblocking of new types of weapons."
Prystayko referred to Zelensky's statement as "unhealthy sarcasm".
Background. Earlier, Mind reported that Zelensky appointed the former Finance Minister Markarova as an extraordinary ambassador to Antigua and Barbuda.
