Trump's ex-Ukraine envoy said she felt 'shocked' and threatened

Marie Yovanovitch, the US's former ambassador to Ukraine, testified to Congress that she felt threatened by comments President Donald Trump made about her during a July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

According to a partial transcript of her testimony in Congress' impeachment inquiry that was released on Monday, Yovanovitch was "shocked" and "concerned" Trump even mentioned her during the phone call.

A White House summary of the phone call showed Trump telling Zelensky Yovanovitch was "bad news and the people she was dealing with in the Ukraine were bad news, so I just want you to know that."

The president also cryptically told Zelensky that Yovanovitch is "going to go through some things."
