The former head of Ukraine’s armed forces is to be appointed as the country’s ambassador to the UK.

Valerii Zaluzhnyi was sacked by President Volodymyr Zelensky last month in what was the biggest shake-up to Ukraine’s military leadership since Russia’s full-scale invasion. The Ukrainian general had led the war effort since 2022.

He had been seen as a potential political rival to Volodymyr Zelensky, and was popular among soldiers.
