Throughout his tenure as head of the OP, Andriy Yermak was focused, not to say obsessed, on appointing "his" people to as many positions as possible. The latest composition of the Cabinet or almost any important personnel rotations in recent years illustrate this perfectly.
However, at a critical moment for Yermak himself, none of his appointees and nominees, even those whose careers would never have existed if it weren't for him, came to the defense of the head of the OP. The man who was served by hundreds was literally left completely alone in one moment.
Even the one in whose name and will Yermak actually co-ruled the state in recent years turned his back.
True, the former head of the OP himself helped Zelensky to get rid of doubts about the correctness of the decision to resign. According to the interlocutors of the UP in the president's team, the head of the Office, when asked to write a statement, threw the president into a formal half-hour tantrum with insults, reproaches, and accusations.
"Yermak did not believe until the last moment that the First (Zelensky - UP) would remove him. And even then - by confronting him with the fact. They say that what upset him the most was that the president left him," a person from Yermak's close circle explains the drama of the situation.
In the end, for Zelensky, this experience of parting was clearly easier, although unpleasant. This is not the first friend that the president has had to exclude from the team. There have already been Andriy Bohdan, and Ivan Bakanov, and even almost his older brother Serhiy Shefir. For Yermak, this was the first experience, which is probably why his reaction was so violent.
"The gap was terrible. But it's cool that the president finally saw who he was warming up to, and now he understands everything. Like Kai after The Snow Queen," concludes one of the interlocutors of the UP from among the high-ranking officials.
Most of the interviewed members of the president's team agree that after Yermak's resignation, Zelensky seems to have returned to his previous version.
"Now he is energetic again. A kind of president of the 24.02.2022 model. And all of us are with him. There were very good meetings on Saturday. Really crazy motivation and attitude," says one of the members of Zelensky's team off the record.
How stable the system of power is and how capable it is of making decisions in the conditions of life without Yermak, can be observed literally this week.
Now the authorities are facing several rather important tasks at once, which will have both practical political consequences and will give certain signals to the entire system and partners of Ukraine.
First of all, the president must decide on the next head of his Office. Depending on which candidate is chosen for this, it will become clear whether the break with Yermak was simply a cosmetic overhaul in the Office, or preparation for a major restructuring of the power system.
As of the beginning of the week, the interlocutors of the Ukrainian People's Party are naming several names at once for the position of head of the Office. Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov, Minister of Defense Denys Shmyhal, and Deputy Head of the Office for Military Affairs Pavlo Palisa look like a group of the most realistic candidates.
In addition, there is a possibility that the position of head of the Office may be offered to First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Serhiy Kyslytsa, who is currently involved in the negotiation track with the United States. Such an appointment could shift the emphasis of the position of head of the Office from scandals and internal affairs to major international work, which could calm the political situation somewhat.
