House impeachment investigators released transcribed testimonies of two diplomats involved in an alleged campaign to pressure Ukrainian leaders into doing political favors for Donald Trump
House impeachment investigators on Tuesday released the transcripts of the hours-long testimony of two diplomats involved in carrying out an alleged shadow foreign policy campaign aimed at pressuring Ukrainian leaders into delivering political favors to President Donald Trump.
The depositions of Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, and Kurt Volker, the former special envoy for Ukraine negotiations, were among the most highly anticipated testimonies in the impeachment inquiry. The transcripts appear to bolster Democrats’ case that Trump, through his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, encouraged the off-the-books diplomacy.
