Zelensky Dismisses Yermak After NABU Raids as Calls Grow for a System Reset

Lawmakers seek structural reform to protect credibility during an investigation with no charges announced.

Overview

  • Anti-corruption detectives searched Andriy Yermak’s residence on November 28, after which he submitted his resignation and President Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed him.
  • Investigative actions by NABU are ongoing, and authorities have not served notices of suspicion to any individual.
  • Mykyta Poturayev, who leads a key parliamentary committee, welcomed the removal but urged a comprehensive reboot of the power system linking the presidency, cabinet and parliament.
  • Poturayev cautioned that the shake-up could complicate near-term negotiations with the United States, arguing that maintaining partner and public trust takes precedence.
  • Yermak told The New York Post he is heading to the front and is “ready for any consequences,” without specifying how he would serve.
