A bipartisan group of senators met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv, just over a week after the Senate acquitted President Donald Trump on charges that he abused his power by asking Ukraine to investigate a political rival.

The three lawmakers, Sens. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), met with Zelensky on Feb. 14 in a bid to improve relations with Ukraine following the House-led impeachment inquiry into Trump.
