"I was not on the July 25 phone call. I received a general readout via our Chargé and my own
State Dept. staffer, as well as from Mr. Yermak. All said it was a good, congratulatory call, that
they discussed the importance of fighting corruption and promoting reform in Ukraine, and that
President Trump reiterated his invitation to President Zelenskyy to visit the White House. I was
not made aware of any reference to Vice President Biden or his son, which I only learned about
when the transcript of the call was released on September 25, 2019.
No mention of security assistance was made in the readouts either, and I said so in my press
remarks on July 27, 2019, in Kyiv."
