BREAKING: Pentagon official testifies President Trump directed a freeze on aid to Ukraine, according to a transcript of her testimony released Monday.
“But I mentioned that either way, there would need to be a notification to Congress,” she said, according to the transcript.Investigators have zeroed in on the testimony of several key figures in the Ukraine affair — including Bill Taylor, the top U.S.
However, Cooper testified that she had concluded from conversations she'd had with Kurt Volker, the then-U.S. special envoy to Ukraine, and Taylor, that that couldn't possibly be true. Cooper also testified that there was a concerted effort within the executive branch to try to get the president to lift the hold.
The transcript of Cooper's closed-door testimony was just the latest document made public as the probe moves to a new phase. House Democrats last week released transcripts of testimony from Taylor, Kent, Volker, U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland and ousted U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch.
