Yermak resigned yesterday, hours after NABU raided his apartment.
The scandal: millions of European financial aid that was supposed to go straight to families of Ukrainian soldiers killed in action was allegedly looted through fake contracts and kickbacks (mostly via the state nuclear company Energoatom).
That’s money that was meant for widows, orphans, and parents who lost their sons. Instead it disappeared into the pockets of regime insiders.
Yermak wasn’t just some advisor; he was the real gatekeeper of power in Kyiv. Nothing big happened without his nod: appointments, budgets, procurement, everything.
Two ministers already resigned over the same case, another key figure fled to Israel, and now the guy who ran the whole show is gone.
The question on everyone’s mind in Kyiv (even inside Zelenskyy’s own party): how does theft this massive happen right under the Presidential Office’s nose without the very top knowing?
Trail is pointing straight at Zelenky now.
While soldiers freeze in trenches and the West is asked for another $60 billion, the elite are apparently stealing from the families of the dead. Hard to see how this ends without a full house-cleaning… or worse.
