In 2014, the Ukrainian parliament impeached Viktor Yanukovich for attempting to make himself dictator and for massacring the demonstrators at Maidan Square. Zlochevsky, Burisma’s owner, served in Yanukovich’s cabinet. When Yanukovich fled Ukraine to rendezvous with his master Putin in Moscow, Zlochevsky also ran.

Note that Yanukovich and Zlochevsky were in a pro-Russian administration, which is to say they wanted Ukraine to be a Russian province. Even assuming Zlochevsky was acting in his own capacity rather than as a cutout for Putin, the reason he paid Biden was to assist Russia in its quest to conquer Ukraine, not help Ukraine remain independent.
