Ukraine's Zelenskiy says has never met or spoken to Giuliani

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday he had never met or spoken to U.S. President Donald Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, whose meetings with Ukrainian officials are now part of an impeachment inquiry in Washington.

Democrats last week launched the impeachment effort in light of a whistleblower complaint against the Republican president, which accused him of soliciting foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. election, for his personal political benefit, on a phone call with Zelenskiy earlier this year.
