Yep. They weren’t on news for quite some time and desperate for attention. To remind the world how poor they are and to ask for more money. If there would be any fire returned by the local resistance it would be immediately reported by the media as ‘unprovoked Russian aggression’.

JOE BIDEN FACES SCRUTINY FOR DEMANDING OUSTER OF
UKRAINE OFFICIAL PROBING FIRM THAT EMPLOYED HIS SON

Suspicions raised---According to the New York Times, the younger Biden increased his international business efforts during his father’s second term as vice president and began associating with figures about whom the U.S. or its ally nations were suspicious. Hunter Biden reportedly began advising Gabriel Popoviciu, a Romanian businessman said to have opened the country's first Pizza Hut restaurant, who came under authorities’ scrutiny over his real estate dealings.

The investigation into Popoviciu, who was known as one of the richest and most powerful men in Romania, came amid calls from the U.S. and its allies to crack down on rampant corruption in the country. This led to the conviction of the Romanian businessman and his seven-year sentence in prison. Other reports concerning the son of the leading 2020 presidential candidate focus on his role in the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, a company that employed him as a board member as the U.S. and the Obama administration were mulling a course of action amid Russia's invasion in Eastern Ukraine.

=======================================

VP Biden weaponized his govt office AND manipulated US foreign policy to protect his son-- --
and publicly bragged about it, in those heady days when Hillary was a shoo-in.

Biden caught on tape (apparently in cahoots with Obama): "We're not going to give you (Ukraine)the billion dollars," he said. "Ukraine said, 'You have no authority. You're not the president.' Biden said, 'Call him (indicating Obama was in on the shakedown).' 'I'm telling you, you're not getting a billion dollars.' I said, I will be leaving here in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money.' Well, son of a b---h got fired."

================================

Biden is already badly-damaged goods. https://www.worldtribune.com/joe-bidens-additional-problems-ukraine-china-and-his-son/

This is one particularly incriminating excerpt from that website: Biden’s role in the firing of Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin in 2016 could prove to be a major issue for the former vice president. Last year, during a Council on Foreign Relations event, Biden told the audience that he pressed President Petro Poroshenko to fire Shokin, including threatening to withdraw a $1 billion U.S. loan from Ukraine, which had been economically decimated due to its war with Russian forces since 2014.

Shokin had been working on a corruption probe that implicated the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings, a company that employed Hunter Biden, as a board member, The Hill reported.

Shokin told The Hill that he had made “specific plans” for the probe, including “interrogations and other crime-investigation procedures into all members of the executive board, including Hunter Biden.” The investigation ended shortly after Shokin was fired, and no charges were filed against any individuals of the company.

Why is Ukraine shelling their own country? It wouldn’t have anything to do with the “Little Green Men” who invaded from Russia and killed thousands, would it?

Gotta love the Pukey apologist here on FR. Ok, maybe not.
