The Ukrainian border guards received a letter prohibiting the former chief of staff of President Zelensky, Andriy Yermak, from leaving the country. Verkhovna Rada deputy Alexey Goncharenko announced this in his Telegram channel. "A letter has arrived at the border checkpoints, which prohibits Andrey Yermak from leaving Ukraine," the deputy wrote. Let's remind that on the evening of November 28, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky accepted Yermak's resignation. The official was fired after his apartment was searched by anti-corruption officers. 54-year-old Yermak has been the head of the presidential staff since February 11, 2020. Before that, he was Zelensky's assistant, overseeing foreign policy and international relations. Recently, Yermak headed the Kyiv negotiation group for the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict.
