Conway wrote that Giuliani's assertion that his business in Ukraine was conducted "solely as a defense attorney to defend my client against false charges" was evidence that Giuliani and Trump were conducting foreign policy for the benefit of Trump's reelection campaign, not U.S. taxpayers.

This tweet by itself establishes that @realDonaldTrump committed an impeachable offense. To say that Giuliani’s and Trump’s pursuit of “Ukrainian ... corruption” was “done solely” to protect Trump’s interests establishes that Trump was not acting for the country. https://t.co/BE8VopaNAr — George Conway (@gtconway3d) November 6, 2019

Democrats argue that military aid to Ukraine was held up for the purpose of convincing Ukraine's government to open the investigation, which they and a whistleblower's complaint assert was an improper attempt by the president to solicit foreign assistance in an election.

Multiple current and former administration witnesses have described an unofficial shadow diplomatic effort led by Giuliani on Kiev. A partial transcript released by the White House of a July 25 phone call showed Trump urging his Ukrainian counterpart to coordinate with Giuliani on the Biden probe.

Giuliani tweeted Wednesday that his work was done to counter "false charges" against his client, referring to Trump, stemming from the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
