Ukraine’s ambassador in London has been sacked after criticising Volodymyr Zelensky’s behaviour in a row with Ben Wallace over claims of ingratitude on the part of Kyiv for arms supplied by Britain and other Western allies.
The Independent revealed on Thursday that there had been “very strong and harsh” telephone conversations between Vadym Prystaiko and the government in Kyiv after he accused President Zelensky of “unhealthy sarcasm” in his response to Mr Wallace, who had said that Ukraine should not view its Western allies as an “Amazon” delivery service.
