According to a KIIS opinion poll published on January 19, Zelensky lost out in the rating of trust of Ukrainians to the former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), now the country's ambassador to the UK, Valery Zaluzhny, as well as to the head of his office, Kirill Budanov (listed in the Russian Federation as a terrorist and extremist).
