The White House has released a transcript of Trump's first phone call with his Ukrainian counterpart. The call came just after Volodymyr Zelensky was elected. It doesn't contain any mentions of the Bidens or the 2016 election, as a later July call did.
The call, which occurred on April 21, came just after Volodymyr Zelensky was elected president.It doesn't contain any mentions of the Bidens or the 2016 election, as a later July call did.The release of the first call came after a month-and-a-half-long debate among aides over the wisdom of making another conversation public."I have many friends in Ukraine who know you and like you," Trump tells Zelensky in the call.
Trump first raised the prospect of releasing the log of an April phone call with Volodomyr Zelensky on September 25, insisting it would help reenforce his innocence in the then-nascent impeachment crisis. He said at the time that Vice President Mike Pence's phone conversations should also be made public.
