With the investigation of the former Ukrainian ambassador, the Democrats continue the process of „impeachment” ) for a possible procedure for leaving President Trump's post.

President Trump calls these investigations „the witch's trial”. Yovanovitch said before the investigative commission he felt like the „viktim of a deignive campaign”, as a result of its anti-corruption commitment to Ukraine. She took responsibility for this Ukrainian high official, but also Donald Trump's personal lawyer, Rudi Giuelian. I don't understand Mr. Giuliani's motivational reasons for attacking me”, she said. She said the accusations are not true, that she told embassy staff or representatives from Ukraine to ignore Trump's orders.

It was terrible “

Yovanovitch said that on the evening of April 24th, during an embassy reception, she has received a call from the State Department.

It was terrible to hear that, no real reason, why I had to leave.” The ambassador was also asked about the protocol of the telephone conversation with Trump and Ukrainian President Voldymyr Selenskyj on July 25th, which is in the centre of Ukraine's vicinity, where Trump conveys the idea of investigations against Biden's son Joe Hunter. On outgoing Ambassador Trump said: „It will go through some things.” Yovanovitch said that „this sounded like a threat.” Regarding the question, if it's felt threatened, she said „but I felt. ”
