The Bidens and the Crooked Ukrainian Prosecutors

During the time Joe Biden was US point man on Ukraine, there were three Ukrainian Prosecutors General. The first, Vitaly Yerema and the third, Yuriy Lutsenko, actively helped Burisma, the Ukrainian oil and gas company, escape responsibility for the theft of Ukraine’s oil and gas assets. Biden did not speak out against them and made no effort to force either of them from office. Coincidentally, his son Hunter and Hunter’s business partner, Devon Archer, were on the payroll of Burisma.

Only one, Viktor Shokin, pursued Burisma and its owner Mykola Zlochevsky. Shokin put seizures on their assets and issued a warrant for Zlochevsky’s arrest should he return to Ukraine. Yet Shokin, not Yerema and not Lutsenko, was the one Prosecutor General that Biden called out and forced from office. In fact, I am aware of no other instance in which the United States demanded the firing of a prosecutor in a country to which we supplied foreign aid, no matter how corrupt. If not unprecedented, what Biden did in Ukraine was at least extraordinary.

At the outset of our Ukraine intervention, it was US policy for Ukraine to recover oil and gas assets believed to have been stolen from the Ukrainian people by Zlochevsky when he was the Ukrainian Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources between 2010 and 2012.

As a result, Zlochevsky hired a politically connected DC firm, Star Strategies, to lobby the US State Department to change this policy. Shortly after Biden became US point man, in February 2014, Zlochevsky hired Hunter Biden and his partner Devon Archer as Burisma Board members

Excellent article that clearly explains the three prosecutors. Biden has disgraced the USA before Ukraine. We owe Ukraine increased proper aid and development assistance.

Without a corrupt “Soros-embassy” (That’s what they call it there), and a corrupt VP, we could have done so much more to help. I say this as someone who’s made over a dozen trips to Ukraine over the last half-decade.

If Hunter's hard drive is real, put the whole thing on the internet, and not just show it to a few high-level muckedy-mucks.

Put it all out so any voter can see it!!

“...Biden was US point man on Ukraine”

Is there a “US point man” for almost every country?
Isn’t that a ambassadors job?

How many other countries was this corrupt pathetic weirdo “Point Man” assigned to?
