Democrats turn eye to Rick Perry in Ukrainian probe
Democrats investigating a whistleblower’s allegations against President Donald Trump pressed Rick Perry on Tuesday for information about his May travels to Ukraine, opening a rare window into the energy secretary’s role as an emissary for some of the administration’s most sensitive international missions.
“His Ukraine-related activities have drawn the interest of members and he almost certainly has relevant testimony to offer,” Raskin said. “He seems to have appeared and reappeared multiple times in the Ukrainian context, so he’s likely to have evidence that Congress would consider material.”
Perry has not been a target of any Democratic subpoenas, and it’s unclear whether he will be a key focus of lawmakers in the impeachment probe. But the questions call new attention to Perry’s record of performing discreet diplomacy for the White House.
