China News Service, July 10 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed several senior Ukrainian envoys abroad on the 9th local time, including his posts in Germany, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Ambassadors of countries such as Norway and India.
Authorities have not been informed of the reasons for the decision, according to reports.
Zelensky had urged diplomats to secure international support and military aid for Ukraine, the report said.
The report also said that Ukraine's relationship with Germany, Europe's largest economy, which is heavily dependent on Russia for energy supplies, is particularly sensitive.
Andriy Melnyk, who was appointed ambassador to Germany by Zelensky's predecessor in late 2014, is well known among German politicians and diplomats.
Melnick, 46, is often outspoken in social media exchanges.
Earlier, when German Chancellor Scholz received Zelensky's invitation to visit Ukraine, he did not immediately accept it, and Melnick mocked Scholz for acting like an "offensive liver sausage" (German slang, often used to describe easy things). people who are offended or cannot be joked about).
In addition, the report also said that Germany and Ukraine are currently at odds over a German-made turbine being repaired in Canada.
Germany wants Canada to return turbines to Russian gas giant Gazprom to deliver gas to Europe.
Ukraine has urged Canada to keep the turbines, saying that shipping them to Russia would violate sanctions imposed on Russia.
