Hunter Biden's Business Ties With Chinese Communist Party Leader

House gop Hunter Biden to face gun charges in Wilmington court

Hunter Biden was reportedly approached by a top Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader in late 2013 to discuss potential business opportunities in China, as per an email obtained and verified by sources. This interaction occurred during a trip to Asia with his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, where Hunter introduced his father to a Chinese business associate in Beijing.

During the trip, Hunter Biden attended events with powerful CCP leaders, including a lunch where he mentioned being asked by the former Governor of Hong Kong, C.H. Tung, to visit Hong Kong for business discussions. Tung, a former governor and billionaire, was associated with the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), a key mechanism under the CCP's leadership.

Subsequent emails in 2014 revealed discussions about introducing Chinese business associates to Tung for potential investments and fundraising opportunities. Despite the correspondence, it remains unclear if Hunter Biden facilitated the introduction between the parties.

Tung's presence at state dinners during the Obama-Biden administration and his connections in Washington, D.C., including with President Biden's top climate diplomat, John Podesta, raised questions about potential influence and relationships.

The CPPCC, where Tung held a prominent position, is noted for its role in China's United Front system, aimed at co-opting and neutralizing opposition to the CCP's policies. Tung's involvement in the China-U.S. Exchange Foundation and interactions with American officials underscored his efforts to foster closer ties between the two nations.

Furthermore, Tung's engagement with Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the U.S., including financial transactions with a Black public relations consultant, highlighted his interest in understanding and engaging with diverse communities.

Requests for comments from Hunter Biden's attorney, the individuals mentioned in the emails, and the White House went unanswered, leaving certain aspects of these interactions unresolved.
