Were not going to issue that statement that Rudy Giuliani wanted to include burisma in the 2016 elections, there was no white house meeting. Soon became clear to them that the Security Assistance was also at risk and that took on a renewed importance for them. Following the July 25th Call, it had to include that they would do the investigations of burisma which equaled the Biden Investigation into the ukraine interference. Was their concern about doing
the investigations or what . Where they supposed to make a statement about it . Ambassador sondland very clearly testified that all he ever heard mr. Giuliani or anyone say is that they only needed the public announcement of the investigation. Without that Public Statement that there would be no white house meeting. Yes. I was struck by how clear the evidence seems to be on this point and id like to play another example. Was they were a quid pro quo . As i testified previously with regard to the requested white house call, the answer is
the president s agent, he was acting on behalf of the president expressing the president s wishes, desires. so what evidence that the committee find that corroborated the quote everyone is in the loop. ambassador sondland produced from his public testimony and i think it s very important in light of the testimony a minute ago as to how many times mr. solomon did not remember in his deposition because we agree it was egregious. but the advantage of doing that close deposition is that mr. sondland could not match up his testimony so as other witnesses when then, he had to admit more and more stuff so he did admit to an email that included secretary pompeo. i do want to make a point before my time goes out. we have to think about what is going on today, so he is meeting with vladimir putin today and
