Ukraine diplomat expected to testify in impeachment inquiry
Marie Yovanovitch, the former U.S. envoy to Kiev and someone President Trump has privately called "bad news," is scheduled to sit for a potentially explosive transcribed interview with lawmakers and staff on Capitol Hill on Friday as Democrats intensify their impeachment inquiry. However, after the White House blocked U.S. Ambassador to the E.U. Gordon Sondland from testifying shortly before his planned appearance on Tuesday, it remained unclear whether Yovanovitch would appear at all.

The White House announced this week it would not comply at all with what it called Democrats' "unconstitutional" proceedings. Trump and his surrogates have painted Yovanovitch as a rogue State Department employee with an anti-Trump political bias.
