December 10, 2019 Democrats announced formal charges against Donald Trump in the impeachment proceeding. There are two: abuse of power and obstruction of the Congress.

If the charges are adopted in plenary session next week, Trump will become the third US president in history to be indicted by Congress.

It is unlikely, however, that he will be dismissed, since the Senate, which will be responsible for judging him, is controlled by the Republicans, who form a square around him.

Therefore, the vote in the justice commission is expected next Wednesday or Thursday in the Chamber of the Chamber.

The White House: "No proof"
"There is no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of the president": the White House reiterates in a note in which, point by point, it replies to the accusations of the Democrats a few hours after the announcement of the articles for the impeachment of Donald Trump . "Ukraine has said that there has been no pressure and military aid to Ukraine would not exist without President Trump," they say, arguing that the Obama administration "had refused for years to do so." "Impeachment is an injustice and an unprecedented deception."
