It remains unknown when exactly the former member of Volodymyr Zelensky's team will go to the battlefield — he did not specify this information.
In addition, he apologized to journalists for possibly not answering calls anymore.
I was disgraced, and my dignity was not protected, despite the fact that I have been in Kyiv since February 24, 2022. Therefore, I do not want to create problems for Zelenskyy — I am going to the front, — claims Yermak.
What is important to understand is that Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky announced the resignation of the head of the OPU on the evening of November 28.
First, the Office of the President of Ukraine will be rebooted. The head of the Office, Andriy Yermak, has submitted his resignation.
