Zelenskyy's Former Chief of Staff named as suspect in major corruption probe
Anti-corruption agencies say the alleged scheme used shell companies and fake documents to move more than Hr 460 million through luxury construction projects.
- Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office have launched investigative actions against Andriy Yermak, the former chief of staff to President Volodymyr Zelensky.
- NABU and SAPO investigators identified an organized group linked to laundering 460 million hryvnias, equivalent to more than $10 million, through elite construction projects outside Kyiv.
- Prosecutors served Yermak with a notice of suspicion under Part 3 of Article 209 of Ukraine's Criminal Code, while Verkhovna Rada deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak first reported the investigative actions.
- Yermak resigned in November 2025 amid an embezzlement scandal at Energoatom, though the Defense Ministry reported in January 2026 he never requested military service despite claiming he was heading to the front.
- In March, Yermak took the helm of a committee established under the National Bar Association of Ukraine, after serving as one of Zelensky's closest political allies.
