Fmr. Ukraine Official: Zelenskyy Chose To Play Dumb On 2019 Trump Call
Newsy
Igor Novikov, President Zelenskyy's former top advisers – who was in the room when the call happened – shares exclusive information with Newsy.
New details emerge on the call between former President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that took place July 25, 2019, after Zelenskyy won his country's presidency.
Trump repeatedly pushed for Zelenskyy to investigate now President Joe Biden, and his son, Hunter, in exchange for military aid.
"There's a lot of talk about Biden's son, that Biden stopped the prosecution, and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it… It sounds horrible to me," Trump said to Zelenskyy during the phone call, according to released transcripts by the White House.
