Giuliani said he has not been interviewed by the FBI and is unaware of any investigation into his finances.

Parnas and Fruman introduced Giuliani to Ukrainian officials who provided the Trump attorney with information that the he claims is damaging to some of President Donald Trump‘s political rivals, including former Vice President Joe Biden.

The two men were indicted for giving more than the maximum donation to an unnamed congressman.


The impeachment inquiry into Trump focuses on the president’s dealings in Ukraine and whether he abused his political power to pressure the Ukrainian government to investigate Biden. Giuliani, Parnas and Fruman have all received House subpoenas for documents related to the investigation.
