Cracks between the two emerged after the diplomat's public criticism of Ukraine's president days ago.

 

Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday dismissed Ukraine's ambassador to the United Kingdom, Vadim Pristaiko. 

 

Pristaiko was a key figure in relations between Kyiv and London, one of its primary European allies. 

In an interview on Sky News days before he was sacked, Pristaiko criticised Zelenskyy for his "sarcasm", while discussing contentious comments by UK defence secretary Ben Wallace. 

 

The outgoing British official said people wanted Kyiv to show more gratitude for the massive amounts of support given by allies, during a NATO summit in Vilnius. 

He quipped the UK is not "an Amazon" delivery service for weapons for Ukraine.
