On July 25, 2019, thenPresident Donald Trump spoke with Zelensky from the White House residence, ostensibly to congratulate Zelensky on his election.
During that conversation, Trump reminded Zelensky that “the United States has been very good to Ukraine.”
Trump knew full well that Zelensky was desperate for some demonstration of support from the American president. Some 13,000 of Zelensky’s people had already been killed in the five-year conflict between Russianbacked separatists and government forces in Ukraine. Nonetheless, just days before phoning Zelensky, Trump froze nearly $400 million of U.S. aid to Ukraine.
Trump continued:
“I would like you to do us a favor, though, because our country has been through a lot, and Ukraine knows a lot about it…. There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son-that Biden stopped the prosecution, and a lot of people want to find out about that, so whatever you can do with the attorney general would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution, so if you can look into it …. It sounds horrible to me.… I will have Mr. Giuliani give you a call, and I am also going to have Attorney General Barr call, and we will get to the bottom of it.”
Zelensky did not want to offend Trump but did not commit to helping Trump dig up dirt on the son of the person most likely to oppose Trump in the 2020 election.
