" Vindman says he was also affected by two events he opposed in real time against senior officials and that he informed the Attorney General of the National Security Council. The first event took place on July 10 at a meeting of the then Minister of National Security and Defense of Ukraine, Oleksandr Danlylyuk, with the United States National Security Adviser John Bolton, at which Ambassador Volker and Sondland and the Minister of Energy Rick Perry participated in Sondland Ukraine will initiate investigations against the Bidens to receive a meeting with President Trump.

This would undermine U.S. national security.”—Lt. Col. Alexander S. Vindman, top Ukraine expert on the National Security Council who reported 7/25 Ukraine call https://t.co/RzKyRksJQG — Ted Genoways (@TedGenoways) October 29, 2019 The second event occurred on a July 25th phone call between President Trump and Zelensky when Trump directly asked Zelensky to investigate the Bidens in exchange for military aid. Vindman states, “‘I was concerned by the call. I did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a US citizen, and I was worried about the implications for the US Government's support of Ukraine, and the potential to undermine US national Security." Vindman also reported this event to the NSC's lead counsel. Why do house researchers want to hear from Vindman? Lt. Col. Alexander S. Vindman will be the first White House official to testify who listened in on the July 25 telephone call between Mr. Trump and President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine that is at the center of the impeachment inquiry.https://t.co/fbZc3Dwbzr — VoteVets (@votevets) October 29, 2019 US officials previously told CNN that the standard procedure suggests that Vindman heard the July 25 conversation and probably played a role in handling the call log. In addition to the questions about the content of this conversation, Vindman will probably press during the minutes of the appeal to White House officials trying to control the implications. CNN previously reported that the confusion that occurred in the hours and days after the call and described by six people who are familiar with it is parallel and expands the details described in the whistleblower complaint. Concern and concern are reflected in a telephone conversation that deeply disturbed national security experts, even though Trump now insists there is nothing wrong with his own behavior. And it shows a failed effort ultimately to stop the agitation of lawyers in the administration. Vindman was also one of five Trump administration officials who were selected for a US delegation headed by Energy Minister Rick Perry to attend the opening ceremony of Zelensky in May, sent to Ukraine. The denunciation of the complainants alleged that the president had degraded the delegation and ordered that "Vice President Pence cancel his planned trip" because he wanted to see "how Zelenskyy decided to take office." Both Sondland and Volker have testified before the House committees in the political trial investigation. Perry, who is described by some as a key element of US relations with Ukraine, has pledged to work with lawmakers to investigate the allegations of the complainant. A source who accompanied Perry on this trip told CNN that they had never heard Biden in discussions or as part of the trip's mission. According to the source, Perry travels regularly at the request of the White House. Volker resigned from his post after being affected by the complaints of the complainant. Perry plans to cancel his position in the administration until December.

The request was cause for concern for some of its national security officials, who discussed with each other if Trump had crossed a border. Initially, the process of transcription and archiving of the call followed the standard procedures for dozens of previous presidential talks with foreign leaders: the raw protocol was distributed to a small group of officials, including the National Security Advisor, the Deputy Security Advisor National, members of the Executive Secretariat and lawyers National Security Council. From there, the Director of the National Security Council for Ukraine, Vindman, verified the accuracy of the document before sending it to the then National Security Advisor John Bolton and his deputy Charles Kupperman. At this time, the document would normally be marked as "restricted access" and would be transmitted as necessary. But in a matter of days, a National Security Council lawyer, by order of his boss John Eisenberg, ordered Council officials to postpone transcription in the codified system, a former White House official said, despite the fact that He was there during the call. No encoded material was discussed. A person familiar with the matter said it was possible for Eisenberg to use the call log after his first call to the main CIA lawyer in the keyword system to "keep the record" because he realized that it was It could be a legal issue However, other people familiar with the matter said the measure had taken place after officials realized internal concerns and wanted to prevent others from reading the document.
