'I was concerned': Trump's top Ukraine expert to testify in impeachment inquiry that he reported troubling conduct twice to superiors
'I was concerned': Trump's top Ukraine expert to tell impeachment investigators he reported troubling conduct twice to superiorsWASHINGTON – The White House's top expert on Ukraine twice notified superiors about concerns that the president and those working for him were linking foreign aid to Ukraine with investigations that would help President Donald Trump politically, a push that he said could undermine U.S.
In the six-page opening statement, Vindman, a key member of the National Security Council, outlines his dedicated service to the country, including his two decades as an Army officer, which included a tour in Iraq where he was wounded in an IED attack and awarded a Purple Heart. He says his family fled the Soviet Union and immigrated to New York City in 1979, giving him a deep appreciation of the American dream.
The first was in July when a number of officials, including former National Security Advisor John Bolton, Ambassadors Kurt Volker and Gordon Sondland — two key witnesses that have testified to lawmakers — and Energy Secretary Rick Perry, who resigned earlier this month, met with Oleksandr Danylyuk, Ukraine's Secretary of National Security and Defense Council, according to the testimony.
