They want to have a transcript of the other call the second call and Im willing to provide that. Well probably give it on Tuesday Monday being a holiday Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews before boarding Air Force One to attend a college football game in Tuscaloosa Alabama. We have another transcript coming out that is very important. They ask for it and I gladly give it Trump continued. That call occurred on April 12 shortly after Zelensky won the Ukrainian presidency and was congratulatory in nature according to Kurt Volker the former special envoy for Ukraine negotiations whose private depositions were released Tuesday. Little else is known about the first call as an official White House readout was not released. Trump has said he dislikes releasing transcripts of calls with foreign leaders because its such a bad precedent." The presidents July call with Zelensky led to the whistleblower complaint that prompted Democratic lawmakers to launch their impeachment probe.
