Rudy Giuliani wrote a letter requesting a private meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskiy, then the president-elect of Ukraine, with President Donald Trump’s “knowledge and consent,” according to records released Tuesday by House Democrats.
The letter was part of the evidence turned over to the House impeachment investigators by lawyers for Lev Parnas, the Giuliani associate who is awaiting trial on campaign finance charges. It bolsters Democrats’ argument that Giuliani was doing Trump’s bidding by trying to dig up dirt on political rival Joe Biden and the Democratic National Committee.
