In his opening statement to congressional committees behind closed doors on Thursday, Volker also detailed conversations with Rudy Giuliani, the president's personal attorney, and defended Biden from allegations of wrongdoing.

He testified that he attempted to persuade the president and Giuliani against having a negative view on Ukraine, and defended Biden as "a man of integrity."
