‘I Followed the Direction of the President’: Sondland Testifies at Impeachment Hearings
Gordon D. Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, told the House Intelligence Committee that President Trump directed him to work with Rudy Giuliani on matters related to Ukraine.
Secretary Perry, Ambassador Volker and I worked with Mr. Rudy Giuliani on Ukraine matters at the express direction of the president of the United States. So we followed the president’s orders. As a presidential appointee, I followed the directions of the president. We worked with Mr. Giuliani because the president directed us to do so. President Trump directed us to quote “talk with Rudy.” Well, when the president says talk to my personal attorney, and then Mr. Giuliani as his personal attorney makes certain requests or demands, we assume it’s coming from the president.
