UKRAINE’S ambassador to Britain has been warned he could face the sack after backing Ben Wallace in a spat with Zelensky over “Amazon” weapons deliveries.
Ambassador Vadym Prystaiko accused Ukraine’s President Zelensky of “unhealthy sarcasm” after he mocked Defence Secretary Wallace at a NATO summit last week.
Wallace had urged Ukraine to show gratitude and not to treat Britain and allies like an Amazon weapons delivery service.
But Zelensky, a former stand-up comedian, ridiculed Wallace by quipping: “We can wake up in the morning and thank the minister.
“Let him write to me and tell me how to thank him.”
