Burisma Paid Joe Biden $900,000 for Lobbying – Ukrainian MP
Ukraine News Agency ^ | October 9th 2019

KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials.

Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, "describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr." at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine's press center in Kyiv on Wednesday.

"This was the transfer of Burisma Group's funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services," Derkach said.

He also publicized sums that were transferred to Burisma Group representatives, in particular Hunter Biden, a son of the former U.S. vice president.

"Using political and economic levelers of influencing Ukrainian authorities and manipulating the issue of providing financial aid to Ukraine, Joe Biden actively assisted closing criminal cases into the activity of former Ukrainian Ecology Minister Mykola Zlochevsky, who is the founder and owner of Burisma Group," he said.

So, was he registered as a foreign agent? Foreign Principal Registration Act of 1938 (FARA).

Well, as the Wizard of Oz once said, “That’s a horse of a different color”. All this time we thought he bought off the Ukrainians to fire the prosecutor to protect his kids ass. This connects daddy directly to the corruption of Burisma and his own potential liability in receiving illegal unreported lobbying funds from a foreign business.

How far down the rabbit hole does this go? How could Obama not be aware of this and do nothing...unless?

I’ll hold off on taking this as anything more than interesting until it gets vetted by a better known news source but it might hold up if its backed by court records.

“When was this payment made? Not clear from the article. If it was while he was VP, this is a serious crime.”

THIS! I can’t believe how lousy “journalists” are today, the most important detail is left out of the story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“In this case, there are facts should be subject to investigation. There is an agency that has powers to investigate them; the U.S. Department of Justice. If the Ukrainian Prosecutor General signs documents and send them to U.S. Department of Justice without any requests, he will accomplish his mission,” he said, adding that the Ukrainian Prosecutor General has such powers. “

Interesting... but seek confirmation. Interfax, Ukraine News Agency and Interfax Ukraine are subsidiaries of a Russian corporation.

The article is fake news from a dubious source. Biden Jr. was getting that cash. Rosemont Seneca was “his” compnay. No way he was transferring that cash to Plugs in a traceable way.
