“The U.S.-Ukraine relationship is as important now as ever,” Republican Senators Ron Johnson and John Barrasso and Democratic Senator Chris Murphy said in a statement on Wednesday announcing their trip. Johnson and Murphy last met with Zelenskiy in Kiev on Sept. 5, as his government was dealing with Trump’s decision to freeze nearly $400 million in security assistance.
That decision, and Trump’s telephone call with the Ukrainian leader to discuss it, became central to an investigation of Trump that led to his impeachment by the Democratic-led House of Representatives late last year.
