KYIV — If actor and comic Volodymyr Zelensky’s prime credential when he was elected in 2019 was that he’d performed a president on TV, the highest qualification of his omnipotent chief of employees, Andriy Yermak, was being Zelensky’s pal.

Wartime situations, together with martial regulation, have concentrated extraordinary authority within the presidential administration, making Yermak maybe essentially the most {powerful} chief of employees within the nation’s historical past — nearly indistinguishable from his boss.
