In the coming weeks, two reshuffles may occur in the President's office at a time. Bankova Street discusses the possibility of dismissing Serhiy Trofimov.

A high-ranking source has reported it to Ukrayinska Pravda.

"Yermak has been willing to remove him for a long time," he said.

According to the source, Trofimov's place may be taken by another deputy head of the Office of the President of Ukraine – Kirill Tymoshenko, who over the past month has established relations with the head of the OPU Andriy Yermak.

He added that the decision has not yet been made, but "Kyrylo really wants to take Serhiy's place."

Trofimov, a former producer of Studio Kvartal 95, deals among the other things with church policy issues at the President's Office. The politician does not hide the fact that he is a parishioner of the Moscow Patriarchate church and attends the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra.

As RISU has reported, Serhiy Trofimov and his wife Anastasia recently had a church marriage ceremony at the St. Panteleimon convent in Theofania of the UOC-MP. The wedding was conducted by Metropolitan Onufriy.

Earlier it was reported that a man resembling the First Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Serhiy Trofimov took part in the Liturgy at the monastery of the UOC-MP near Kyiv.
