Ukrainian prosecutors find no evidence against Hunter Biden

Source: The Guardian

An audit of thousands of old case files by Ukrainian prosecutors found no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of Hunter Biden, the former prosecutor general, who had launched the audit, told Reuters.

Ruslan Ryaboshapka was in the spotlight last year as the man who would decide whether to launch an investigation into former vice president Joe Biden and his son Hunter, in what became a key issue in the impeachment of President Donald Trump.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy described Ryaboshapka as “100 percent my person” on a call in July 2019 in which Trump asked Zelenskiy to investigate Biden, the man who became his main rival in the 2020 presidential race.

After taking office, Ryaboshapka in October announced an audit of old cases he inherited, including those related to the energy company Burisma, of which Hunter Biden was a board member between 2014-2019.

Trumpski wanted his investigation, he got his investigation.

Now who's up for an investigation into how much Trump properties have profited off foreign countries and ripping off the secret service for golf outings?

The damage is done.

People think that there was some impropriety, even if they have no clue what it is.
