Oleksiy Honcharenko, a Member of Parliament for the "European Solidarity" party and chair of the Verkhovna Rada’s Temporary Investigation Commission, plans to summon Yermak, the "fortune-teller", to a meeting of the commission.

The MP made this statement in a comment to ThePublic.

“It is indeed important to find out who this so-called ‘Veronika Fengshui’ is, what access to information she may have had, and what influence she had on decision-making or communication with government officials.

The work of our Temporary Investigation Commission in this regard is crucial, as we are hearing from all those involved, suspects, and witnesses linked to high-profile cases," said Goncharenko. 

"Veronika Feng Shui" or Yermak’s "fortune-teller": what is known about her

As a reminder, during the court hearing at the High Anti-Corruption Court on 13 May regarding the imposition of a preventive measure on the former Head of the President’s Office, Andriy Yermak, the name of a person known as “Veronika Feng Shui Office” came to light. At that time, the Head of the President’s Office was likely consulting with her regarding appointments to senior government posts – including, in particular, Deputy Head of the President’s Office Oleg Tatarov and the Prime Minister. According to the prosecutor from the Specialised Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO), this is Veronika Anikievich.

As ‘Schemes’ (Radio Free Europe) has discovered, she is a 51-year-old resident of Kyiv who describes herself as an astrology consultant. On social media, she has actively spoken out in support of Andriy Yermak, and in users’ contacts she is listed as ‘Veronika Konsult. A.B.’ and ‘Veronika Anikievich/Yermak’s fortune-teller’.

Veronika Anikievich, also known as Veronika Danilenko (one of her relatives has this surname), describes herself as the author of the Telegram channel “Lunnye Chasy” (in the original language). She states that she provides astrological consultations: “using my knowledge and experience in astrology, I help people find clarity regarding the course of their lives” (in the original Russian).

Veronika Anikievich has been registered as a sole trader since 2024, with her business activity listed as “provision of other personal services”.
