Donald Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani has been subpoenaed for documents related to his work in Ukraine on behalf of the president, marking the latest escalation of the impeachment inquiry
The subpoena follows after the release of a bombshell whistleblower complaint, which claims Mr Trump urged the leader of Ukraine to open an investigation into former vice president Joe Biden, a potential 2020 political rival. During the 25 July phone call between Mr Trump and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky, according to that complaint and a transcript released by the White House, the president urged his Ukrainian counterpart to consult with Mr Giuliani in that investigation.
