Zelensky Taps Former General Zaluzhnyi as Ukraine's Ambassador to UK

TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian President Zelensky appointed former military chief Valery Zaluzhny as Ukraine's ambassador to Britain, following reports of strained relations between the two. Zaluzhny's popularity in Ukraine rivals that of the president, and the move is seen as a way to keep him in an influential role while removing him from battlefield decision-making. Meanwhile, French President Macron's recent remarks suggest a shift in France's position on supporting Ukraine, with increased rhetoric about the West's responsibility to help Ukraine defeat Russia.
