Maybe, but the call does not mention holding up funds, so we don't really know. It's suspicious, but we don't know.

Yes, we know for sure. Immediately after the call, the White House directed the Pentagon to hold up funds. There are plenty of witnesses to this effect.

The call itself is not damning, but there's clear evidence that Trump tried to hold up military support.

Now, how illegal or immoral that is, is a separate question entirely as well.
