The US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said President Donald Trump will be charged with impeachment.
“Today I ask the chairman (congressional committee on judicial affairs – ed.) to begin the process of compiling impeachment articles”, – Pelosi said in a televised address.
“The President leaves us no choice but to act, because he is again trying to undermine the elections for his own political needs. The President has exceeded his authority, undermining our national security and jeopardizing the honest nature of our elections”, – Pelosi added.
Democrats began the process of impeachment against Trump, suspecting him of delaying military assistance to Ukraine and demanding, in exchange for providing assistance, to investigate his political opponent Joe Biden and his son Hunter. Trump claims that he demanded that the Ukrainian authorities only fight corruption.
