Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is considering replacing Ukraine's Ambassador to the United States, Oksana Markarova, who has held this position since February 2021. This was reported by The Washington Post , citing anonymous sources in diplomatic circles.
As a reminder, in September, House Speaker Mike Johnson (Republican) called on Zelensky to fire Markarova after Zelensky's scandalous visit to a weapons plant in Pennsylvania, surrounded only by Democrats. This was negatively assessed by Republicans, who perceived this trip as the Ukrainian president's participation in Kamala Harris's election campaign.
Republican Donald Trump won the presidential election.
Kyiv has not officially commented on the plans to change the ambassador to the US.
