Former Presidential Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak's Post-Resignation Meetings.
Andriy Yermak's Meetings with High-Ranking Officials
According to TSN.ua: Following his resignation, former Presidential Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak has continued to hold meetings with senior officials, including Rustem Umerov and Oleksandr Kamyshin. It is known that on January 30, 2026, he visited the residential complex where Rustem Umerov lives. The meeting lasted about an hour and, according to Umerov, covered "general topics" such as life, work, and events in Ukraine.
Earlier, on January 27, 2026, Yermak also met with Oleksandr Kamyshin, who expressed the view that communication with the former head of the President's Office was important because Yermak had "held the position for a very long time."
The Situation After Resignation
Andriy Yermak was dismissed from his role as head of the President's Office on November 28, 2025. On the same day, searches were conducted at his premises by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP). Since his resignation, Yermak has remained in Kyiv and reportedly attends daily training sessions at state facilities. He is known to be prohibited from traveling abroad due to a formal letter of restriction.
These details point to Yermak's continued activity in public life after his dismissal and his ongoing communication with high-ranking officials. The President's Office is a central hub of executive power in Ukraine, making the activities of its former head a subject of close public and political interest.
