Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's chief of staff Andriy Yermak has resigned after the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) conducted searches on Friday at premises linked to him as part of a major corruption investigation involving the state nuclear power company.
"In order to have internal strength, there should be no reason to be distracted by anything other than defending Ukraine. I want no one to have any questions about Ukraine," Zelenskyy said in a statement confirming Yermak's resignation.
