WASHINGTON: Democratic U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the summary of a July phone conversation between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukraine's president released by the Justice Department on Wednesday confirmed the need for an impeachment inquiry of Trump.
"The release of the notes of the call by the White House confirms that the President engaged in behavior that undermines the integrity of our elections, the dignity of the office he holds and our national security," Pelsoi said in a statement.
