Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s chief of staff sent in a letter of resignation, after two months in his job, but Zelenskiy has not signed it, according to a statement on the presidential website on Friday, APA reports citing Reuters.

Mystery has surrounded the status of Andriy Bogdan, the head of the presidential administration, since Thursday evening. The local news agency Interfax Ukraine had reported Bogdan’s resignation but later retracted the story.

His appointment was controversial. He was previously a lawyer for Ihor Kolomoisky, one of Ukraine’s most powerful tycoons, whose business ties to Zelenskiy have been under scrutiny since the start of Zelenskiy’s election campaign this year.

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has confirmed the existence of a letter of resignation of the chief of his staff,” a statement on the presidential website said. “The head of the state clarified that he had not signed the letter yet”.
