He spends much of his time building international support to defend his country, but he has a lingering internal issue he needs to address – Head of the Office of the President, Andriy Yermak. I have spent much of my own time in Ukraine over the last three months – meeting with community and government leaders, fighters, and civilians alike. I believe Ukraine has the potential to be a powerhouse of democracy, an incubator of young talent, and a true ally to the United States in a region where such partnership is badly needed. And as someone who grew up in Ukraine under communist dictatorship, the best interest of all freedom-loving people will always be in my heart and actions. Based on the strong support I have been receiving from Americans, Ukrainians, and many people around the world, I understand why my comments struck a chord with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. I encourage the Ministry to consider my statement with the kind of seriousness these questions about Mr. Yermak demand, instead of launching ad hominem attacks as they have thus far. Ukrainians and Americans will be better served by our governments responding with due diligence – not defensive platitudes. I will list some of the serious allegations against Mr. Yermak and let him address them himself: | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:20:25Z |
