[Washington, 7th Reuters]-The three House committees that lead Trump's impeachment investigation sent to the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) and the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on the 7th. President Trump asked for a related document to be submitted by the 15th over a decision to withhold military support against Ukraine.
The committee said in a statement, “In addition to President Trump urging Ukraine to intervene in the 2020 US election, Ukraine suspended military support approved by Congress to defend against Russian attacks, and to conceal I will investigate how much the national security has been threatened by a series of actions. "
According to a whistleblower, President Trump will spend $ 400 million before a phone call with Ukrainian President Zerensky in July to put pressure on Ukraine to investigate his opponent, former vice president Joe Biden and his son. He told him to suspend support.
In connection with this problem, several US diplomats are expected to give private testimony in the House. Testimony by Gordon Sondland European Union ambassador, allegedly involved in the issue, and former Ambassador of Ukraine Marcia Jovanovic, who was dismissed in May, is scheduled.
The White House is also expected to inform the President of Perossi on the 7th that he will not respond to any subpoena until he is voted to start a formal impeachment investigation at the House of Representatives. Pelosi has stated that voting at the plenary session is not necessary.
