White House vows to fight impeachment inquiry

Newsday

Available for over a year

The White House has officially refused to co-operate with the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump. A letter sent to Democratic leaders rejected it as "baseless" and "constitutionally invalid". Turkey has boosted its military positions on the border with Syria after saying it is ready for a long-threatened operation that could target Kurdish forces long allied to the US. West African politicians and film stars are among thousands calling for action following a BBC report into sexual harassment at top universities.
