President Donald Trump gave "clear direction" to place a hold on military aid to Ukraine, a top official at the White House Office of Management and Budget told the Pentagon in unredacted emails seen by the national security website Just Security. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Thursday the emails "further expose the serious concerns raised by Trump administration officials about the propriety and legality of the president's decision to cut off aid to Ukraine to benefit himself." The emails also showcase the tensions between the White House and the Pentagon over the hold on the Ukraine funds. |
