According to Lebedev, with friends like Melnik, Berlin "does not need enemies."

“Because it’s unlikely that anyone else could spoil Ukraine’s relations with Germany than Melnik did,” the designer said, recalling that the ambassador began to behave “as boorishly as possible.”

Lebedev recalled that Melnik called German Chancellor Olaf Scholz an offended liverwurst.

He called the interview of the ambassador to the German journalist Thilo Jung the icing on the cake of Melnik's diplomatic career, in which he called the Nazi accomplice Stepan Bandera a "freedom fighter" and Robin Hood.

“As a result, he will be teleported home and given an honorable job somewhere in the Foreign Ministry, he will sit and sort through papers, which is a pity, he could ruin so many more great relationships,” concluded the presenter of the heading.

After Melnyk's statement about Bandera, the Israeli embassy in Berlin strongly criticized the Ukrainian ambassador's statement.

Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak called the Ukrainian ambassador to Germany "a useful idiot of the Kremlin."
