6 things we learned from Fiona Hill and David Holmes' impeachment testimony.
Holmes outlined, as other witnesses have, that he became aware of a freeze to the military aid to Ukraine on a July 18 conference call during which a White House Office of Management and Budget staff member announced the hold on Ukraine security assistance.
He explained being left out of a meeting that day between Sondland and Andriy Yermak, a top aide to Zelenskiy, because Yermak’s assistant told him that Yermak and Sondland wanted “the meeting to be one-on-one, with no note-taker.” Holmes, who said he took notes of the meeting between Bolton and the Ukrainians, testified that Bolton told Zelenskiy and Zelenskiy's chief of staff that the military aid would remain frozen “prior to the Warsaw meeting,” and that its release would actually “hang on whether President Zelenskiy was able to ‘favorably impress' President Trump" at the Warsaw meeting. Trump didn’t end up making the Warsaw trip, and the hold continued.
