• USA: Trump to Zelensky: "I want you to do us a favor"
  • Keys and background The impeachment: a political trial that already affects four US presidents

The House of Representatives Intelligence Committee has revealed the complaint of an intelligence member in which it shows its concern about whether Trump used his power to request foreign interference in the 2020 elections.

"In the course of my official duties, I have received information from various officials of the US Government that the president is using the power of his office to request interference from a foreign country in the 2020 US elections, " said a member of intelligence, according to the document revealed by the Intelligence Committee of the House of Representatives.

Democrats accuse Trump of "betrayal" of the Constitution and national security for having asked a Ukrainian government to investigate former US Vice President Joe Biden, so far one of the favorites to win the Democratic primary of the year that comes.

Yesterday, the White House made public the transcript of the call between Trump and Zelensky, which took place on July 25 and whose existence was learned precisely after the internal complaint of an American intelligence official.

This unidentified national intelligence worker, known in the US as a "whistleblower," was alarmed to learn the content of that call and the alleged related interactions between lawyer Giuliani and Ukrainian officials, who filed an internal complaint with the Office of the General Inspector of Intelligence agencies.

Minutes before the public disclosure of this complaint, Trump accused the Democrats of "trying to destroy the Republican Party and all the values ​​it represents." "Get together, play your game and fight hard, Republicans. Our country is at stake!" Trump said in his Twitter account.

The Democratic opposition already has a majority in the lower house favorable to initiate an impeachment or political trial against Trump for this reason, according to estimates by various media.

Between 218 and 219 congressmen (all Democrats except one who was elected as a Republican and is now independent) have declared themselves in favor of starting the proceedings for the impeachment process.

If the Lower House votes in favor of the "impeachment", it will be the Senate - with a Republican majority - in charge of holding the political trial against the president, in which it would take two thirds of the votes to dismiss him.
