A top aide to Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, who sat in on the phone call with Ukraine that’s now at the heart of an impeachment inquiry, declined to testify before Congress on Monday.

An attorney for Charles Kupperman, the deputy to ex-National Security Adviser John Bolton, said he could not testify before House committees investigating the president after the White House ordered him not to appear before Congress , citing executive privilege.

Mr Kupperman was subpoenaed by the Democratic-led committees to discuss the phone call in which Mr Trump urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to launch investigations into one of his political rivals, Joe Biden, as well as the origins of the Russian investigation. A whistleblower complaint alleged the White House withheld crucial financial aid to the country while pressing Ukraine to conduct the probes.
