This Abridge News topic aggregates four unique arguments on different sides of the debate. Here are the quick facts to get you started:

THE QUICK FACTS

  • Gordon Sondland, US Ambassador to the European Union, revised his earlier testimony to Congress on Tuesday, admitting that he told a Ukrainian official that Ukraine would have to investigate Hunter Biden to unlock military aid.
  • In a previous testimony, Sondland had told House Representatives that military aid to Ukraine did not have any preconditions, and that he "didn't know why" it was held up.
  • Sondland's specific words were: "I now recall speaking individually with Mr. Yermak, where I said that resumption of U.S. aid would likely not occur until Ukraine provided the public anti-corruption statement that we had been discussing for many weeks."
