Zaluzhnyi completing preparations for work in Britain - Kuleba

The newly appointed Ukrainian ambassador to the United Kingdom, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, is already completing preparations for the beginning of his diplomatic work in the United Kingdom.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said this in an interview with Ukrinform.

"This process is already at the end of the finish line," Kuleba said when asked when the new ambassador would complete preparations and start work in London.

According to Kuleba, he understands the increased interest in this topic.

"Let me remind you that all ambassadors are evaluated in the same way: by results. Therefore, I wish our new ambassador to the United Kingdom, first of all, success and results in his diplomatic work for the sake of our country," Kuleba said.

The procedure for appointing Zaluzhnyi as Ukraine's ambassador to the UK was launched at the beginning of March. President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a respective decree on May 9.
