Hunter Biden is accused of earning a fortune through corrupt dealings in Ukraine
Democrat Joe Biden has claimed that Ukraine is too corrupt to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
Biden dismissed the idea that the eastern European nation could join the military alliance, arguing that the country must clean up corruption first.
The remarks were surprising considering Biden himself, and his son Hunter, have been the focus of years of investigation into the younger Biden’s affiliations with Ukrainian oligarchs.
Most notably is Hunter s hiring by the notoriously corrupt Ukrainian energy firm Burisma Holdings.
Leaked emails have appeared to indicate that Hunter s position as a board member at the firm - allegedly earning $50,000 per month with zero experience in the sector - was directly the result of those oligarchs seeking influence with then-Vice President Biden.
