this meeting that took place in madrid about a week after president trump had that phone call with zelensky, kurt volker met in madrid and the whistle-blower described this as a followup to the president's july 25th phone call that's at the center of the whistle-blower complaint. so that is something that obviously house democrats are interested in scrutinizing. it's volcker's role to facilitate it. that is something that is going to get a lot of attention. volcker, victor, is one of the people that these house democratic committees would like to see deposed before october 10th. >> yes. we've heard from the foreign affairs committee that volcker will be questioned some time next week. sarah westwood for us in washington. th thank you. >>> all right. let's talk about ukraine. a bipartisan group of lawmakers are meeting with military and political leaders today. cn international correspondent matthew chance in kiev this morning. good morning. >> matthew, this trip was planned months ago. it's about the military and investment in eastern european countries. has the nature of this visit changed considering

the day after trump spoke with president zelensky on the phone the next day kurt volker was there on the ground in ukraine meeting with zelensky and talking about according to the complaint how to navigate the demands made by president trump. so it is going to be really interesting to see what ambassador volker ends up saying here. now he's left the trump administration and should be able to say a little more than he would have if he was still in the administration. but he has been called forth to talk to congress about this and we're expecting that's going to happen next week. >> we know the house, i think the house foreign affairs committee really wants to get him in front of them. secretary of state mike pompeo is another one congress is calling on. they've now subpoenaed the secretary of state. his name was not mentioned in that whistle-blower complaint. what do they want to hear exactly from mike pompeo? >> well, so what they want from mike pompeo are documents. state department documents. so there are the allegations right now as we've seen because there's proof out there that t

the fact that the now resigned ambassador special envoy to ukraine kurt volker is a mccain guy, was never a trump guy to begin with, now less than a week after he's resigned he is ready to testify this coming thursday. should the white house be concerned specifically because there are a lot of folks out there who are suggesting he may be what you once were, another john dean. >> well, wolf, one thing is for sure. i don't think the effort to get him not to testify, to not appear, to not say anything, is going to work. there is no privilege to do that, although some members of the white house staff, former members of the white house staff have done that. in the house judiciary inquiry. i don't think he is going to fool with that. i think he is going to get right down to it and tell them a lot about what was going on. >> yeah. he'll be under oath so he has to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. you in your excellent reporting with bob woodward many years ago sparked the impeachment inquiry against richard nixon. where do you see this heading right now? >> i think it's much to

the impeachment inquiry a whistle-blower said that the day after trump's july call with ukraine president volodymyr zelensky, kurt volkerveled to the capital to meet with the leader. it alleges that volker went to kiev to guide the ukraine officials on how to handle trump's demands to look into hunter biden's nearly five years as a member of the board that mansion ukraine's natural gas producer. i understand you know mr. volker. was he involved in this plan to try to dig up dirt on joe biden's son hunter? >> joy, i can't say that i know exactly what ambassador volker, kurt's involvement was. i will say he is an outstanding, upstanding professional, consummate professional and i actually believe what the whistle-blower wrote was that he was trying to do damage control. that is what i know of the man. he cares about american democracy and he cares about ukrainian democracy and i think understanding -- i don't know whether ambassador volker knew the context of the conversation, the context within which he was jumping in to talk to the ukrainians but clearly he knew that rudy giuliani was up to no good and he was trying to

they will be cooperative and congress will learn a lot. >> jonathan, donald trump and mike pompeo gist lost control of kurt volkerthat resignation makes him a completely free agent in dealing with congress. >> so we're going to learn everything about what rudy giuliani did when he got on the ground and his contacts. i'm not sure volker was there for all those contacts so it might be a little underwhelming and we should understand these are all sideshows. trump has already confessed. he confessed last sunday. it's not like we have a lot of, you know, evidence-gathering to be done in this case, and that's why democrats rightly think that this can be done this year. he can be impeached before the end of the year. and it's possible they could have the trial as soon as december. so it's very important that they stay on this fast track. there's a lot of worry in washington because politicians like to grand stand. they're going to be -- they should be striking witnesses, actually, not adding witnesses, although it will be good to hear from volker. >> on volker and these other witnesses, it would be uncharacteristic for

ukraine and talked to him about how to navigate the demands made by president trump over this summer. so clearly kurt volker was in the center of it, and we still have a lot of unanswered questions because the state department has said on the record that kurt volker did, indeed, connect a zelensky aide with rudy giuliani. but they haven't gone any further than that. so we need to hear from the state department about what kurt volker was doing, and he clearly had had enough of it. the state department hadn't come out defending him in the last week. instead, we had rudy giuliani on fox news waving his cell phone, showing off text messages that he said were from kurt volker. he said that he was doing everything he was doing because the state department told him to. and now we have kurt volker, who is the person he was talking to, resigning from the state department. >> the other question, of course, is what secretary of state mike pompeo knew or knows now. secretary pompeo has been subpoenaed by the house. is there something specific that we know has precipitated that, and would he be forced to comply? do we k
