Exclusive: Yermak ran 'troubling' back-channel with Trump's Wiles

The Kyiv Independent reports that Andriy Yermak, former head of Ukraine's Presidential Office, maintained a back-channel with Susie Wiles, Trump's former chief of staff, beginning after the January 2025 inauguration. The claim is sourced to an exclusive report and is unverified; it suggests unofficial U.S.-Ukraine communications outside formal channels. This matters as it could indicate informal influence networks affecting bilateral relations and policy transparency.
