Hunter Biden Sought Help From US State Department For Business

Hunter Biden appears for deposition with House Republicans in Washington

Recent reports from The New York Times reveal that Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, sought assistance from the US State Department in 2016 for a deal involving a Ukrainian gas company, Burisma, while his father was vice president. Hunter Biden, who was a board member at Burisma at the time, reached out to the US ambassador to Italy regarding regulatory approval for a geothermal project in Tuscany.
