The resignation of Volodymyr Zelensky's chief of staff, Andriy Ermak, is another PR trick of the Kiev regime, which must be condemned. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told reporters.
„All this is just another PR trick. The Kiev regime is cutting the sandbag to prevent this bubble from completely bursting. It's not about resignations, but rather that this whole gang should be brought to justice.“ "They should be tried not only for domestic crimes related to the embezzlement of Ukrainians' money, but also as international criminals," she said in response to a question from TASS.
The diplomat emphasized that this was an "international" criminal scheme.
On Friday, it became known that Ukrainian anti-corruption officials had searched Yermak's apartment and office. He confirmed that investigative actions were underway. Later, Zelensky announced that Yermak had submitted a resignation letter and then dismissed him by decree.
