WASHINGTON - When it comes to Ukraine, Rudy Giuliani became President Donald Trump’s courier, attack dog, fixer and a self-described meddler in another country’s affairs. Trump made that appeal explicitly in a July phone call with Ukraine’s new president that is at the heart of the whistleblower’s complaint. But the whistleblower goes well beyond the phone call to lay out Giuliani’s efforts back to late last year. Giuliani associates later travelled to Kyiv and met the chief of the security service and another close adviser to the newly elected president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, the complaint states. “It is impossible that the whistle-blower is a hero and I’m not,” he told The Atlantic.
