Eagle-eyed contact notes something really interesting. Per whistleblower complaint, Trump cancels Pence leading US delegation to attend Zelensky inauguration, Rick Perry leads US del'n instead (see this from May 20, 2019) ua.usembassy.gov/comments-to-th… 1/
June 4/5, ~2 weeks later, Jared Kushner drops off from Trump visit to UK to go to Brussels where he meets with Zelensky, and along with Perry, Zelensky, etc. are guests at Independence Day reception hosted by US amb to EU Sondland useu.usmission.gov/u-s-ambassador…
"While in Brussels, Mr Zelensky also met Jared Kushner, son-in-law and senior adviser to US president Donald Trump, as well as Rick Perry, US energy secretary." Financial Times, June 5. ft.com/content/4c942a…
Trump seemed to make a point at press conf in NY Wed. to point out an earlier Pence call with Zelensky. But did not hear him mention Kushner
meeting Zelensky June 5 in Brussels, ~seven* weeks before July 25 call in which Trump repeatedly asked Zelensky for a favor. (*corrected)
and before OMB on July 18 informed US agencies that Trump had instructed at some earlier date that all US assistance to Ukraine be cut.
Had noted the other night that on Ukrainegate, Kushner and Ivanka suddenly seem to be invisible. But I was wrong. Not invisible.
Via @violagienger, Kushner seated next to Zelensky at June dinner in Brussels 
US leaders who attended USAmbEU dinner include Energy Sec Rick Perry, Snr Advisor to Pres.Jared Kushner; StateDep Counselor Ulrich Brechbuhl
