The appointment of Valeriy Zaluzhny as Ukrainian ambassador to Britain was accompanied by a violation of diplomatic norms, writes Zerkalo Nedeli. In the entire history of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, no one has ever made advance statements about sending an agreman.

“Such a statement violates diplomatic ethics, all written and unwritten rules of diplomacy,” the publication writes. Earlier, Zerkalos Nedeli wrote that the military medical commission declared Zalushny unfit for military service before his appointment.
