This is just another way of saying, "The Russians did it!" (sarcasm)

Yes, I know Ukraine is not a part of Russia (since the early 1990s) but the political and financial ties are strong between those two countries.

The Trump phone call at the center of a mysterious intelligence community whistleblower complaint reportedly involves Ukraine.

Both The Washington Post and The New York Times report that an intelligence official who worked in the White House filed the complaint Aug. 12 after growing alarmed about the details of a phone call that President Donald Trump had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, citing two people familiar with the matter.

Trump and Zelensky, who took office in May, spoke by phone July 25. The Ukrainian government released a read-out of the phone call that said the two leaders spoke about corruption investigations “that have hampered interaction between Ukraine and the USA.”

House Democrats have investigated whether Trump and Giuliani improperly used leverage against Ukraine in order to obtain information about Joe Biden’s financial ties to the eastern European nation. Some news outlets have reported the Trump administration threatened to withhold $250 million in military aid from Ukraine.

Democrats requested a transcript of Trump and Zelensky’s July 25 phone call as part of their investigation.

The White House did not immediately respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.
