History

edit

The first diplomatic mission of the Ukrainian People's Republic to the United Kingdom was established in May 1919 at 38 Kensington Mansions, Trebovir Road, London SW5, moving to 75 Cornwall Gardens, London SW7 in October 1919.

The Ukrainian mission was not officially recognised by the United Kingdom and its main objective was to secure recognition for the Ukrainian People's Republic. The United Kingdom recognised the independence of Ukraine on 31 December 1991. Diplomatic relations were established on 10 January 1992 and the Embassy of Ukraine in the UK was opened in October 1992. The first ambassador of Ukraine to the UK was Serhiy Komisarenko.
