Zaluzhny, Federov and Budanov outrank Zelensky in Ukrainian trust poll

A new Rating Group poll shows Volodymyr Zelensky leading Ukraine's presidential race, but he is outranked in public trust by three figures: military commander Valerii Zaluzhny, tech minister Mykhailo Fedorov and intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov. A controversial dismissal at the top of the Ukrainian state was criticised by a majority of Ukrainians. The results highlight the growing political weight of figures associated with the country's defence.
