Rudy Giuliani on Thursday called on Congress to investigate the allegations made about former Vice President Joe Biden’s work in Ukraine by The New York Times.
The Times reported on Wednesday that Biden’s efforts to stem corruption in the Ukrainian government may have helped his son, Hunter Biden, who at the time sat on the board of an energy company, Burisma Holdings, owned by a Ukrainian oligarch.
One of Biden’s tactics during negotiations with Ukraine was to threaten to withhold $1 billion in American loan guarantees until the country fired prosecutor general Viktor Shokin over claims that he had ignored corruption. The Times notes that at the time, Shokin was leading an investigation into Burisma Holdings.
Giuliani tweeted a link to the article with the message: “Biden conflicts are too apparent to be ignored and should be investigated quickly and expeditiously. But the more important question is how deep and how high did the alleged Ukraine conspiracy go?”
“I have had no role whatsoever in relation to any investigation of Burisma, or any of its officers,” Hunter Biden said in a statement to the Times on Wednesday. “I explicitly limited my role to focus on corporate governance best practices to facilitate Burisma’s desire to expand globally.”
