Volker to Testify Despite Pompeo Letter

Tuesday, 01 October 2019 10:21 PM EDT

Kurt Volker, who resigned last week as U.S. special representative to Ukraine, has confirmed that he’ll testify in private on Thursday in front of three House committees as part of their impeachment investigation, according to an official from one of the committees.

Volker resigned on Friday after he was named in a whistle-blower’s complaint over Trump’s telephone call with Zelenskiy.

Earlier Tuesday, Pompeo accused House committees of trying to “bully” State Department staff by calling them to testify starting this week.

Marie Yovanovitch, the former ambassador to Ukraine, will appear in front of the panels on Oct. 11, the official said. Yovanovitch was U.S. ambassador to Ukraine from 2016 to 2019, and she still is in the foreign service. Trump recalled her to Washington on May 20, the day of Zelenskiy’s inauguration.
