Two State Department officials who served as senior advisers on Ukraine are testifying before House lawmakers leading an impeachment inquiry on Oct. 30.

One of the officials, Catherine Croft, a foreign service officer who served under former U.S. special envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker, will tell lawmakers in a closed-door hearing about Trump’s long-held view of Ukraine being a corrupt country and about her concerns over her interaction with Robert Livingston, a lobbyist and former GOP congressman.
