Government and the Justice Department, thats the perfect way to raise an issue with the ukrainian president , correct . It is appropriate for the Justice Department and the prosecutor again to cooperate and exchange information, yes. To the extent the president had concerns and the Attorney General is having u. S. Attorney durham looking into that. Is that entirely appropriate for the president to flag this for should be in touch with our official challenge . I dont know the precise appropriateness of these kinds of relations. Now, were you involved, either of you involved in the preparation for the 7 25 call . I was not. I was not. How do you account for that . I mean you were the two officials responsibility with ukrainian policies. If the president of the united
states having a call with the leader of ukraine, why would you not ordinarily be involved with the preparations. In preparations for a president ial phone call that lies within staff of the National Security council. If ther
how he s going to eninvestigate burisma or the eybidens. president szelensky does not allow it. you said you have a clear understanding that those two things it is going to happen. the money was going to get released until until the investigation and that did not happen. where did you get this clear understanding? as i testified mr. jordan. this came ambassador sondland. i am going to bring you a piece of paper from ambassador sondland statement. go ahead. i am going to let you finish. shall i read this? i want you to have it because i am going to read it. i want you to go ahead finish. you said you got this from ambassador sondland. that s correct.
