The son of future US President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, is under federal investigation for “tax issues.” Hunter Biden announced on Wednesday (local time) through his father’s team that his lawyers had been informed of the investigation the previous day by the prosecutor in the US state of Delaware. He took the matter seriously, but was confident that an objective investigation would show that he was not guilty of anything.
Biden’s son was repeatedly targeted by now-elected President Donald Trump during the election campaign. Trump brought serious corruption charges against Hunter and Joe Biden, who was vice president from 2009 to 2017. The background for this is Hunter Biden’s questionable foreign business in Ukraine and China. Hunter Biden held a lucrative position on the supervisory board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma between 2014 and 2019.
The future president had dismissed the attacks against him and his family in the election campaign as a smear campaign. Biden’s team said they were proud of their son. Hunter Biden faced serious challenges, “including malicious personal attacks in recent months.” He came out of her stronger. (sda / dpa)
