The day before, the Ukrainian media reported that the Ukrainian National Police had closed the criminal proceedings against the US presidential candidate Joe Biden. Today, the Ukrainian Interior Ministry confirmed this information.
In fact, the National Police of Ukraine has closed the criminal proceedings against the US presidential candidate Joe Biden, opened at the request of the former Attorney General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin. Yaroslav Trakalo, deputy director of the communications department of the Interior Ministry, said this in a comment to Radio Svoboda.
“I can confirm that yes, they closed it,” he said.
On the eve of the closure of production, the agency “Ukrinform” reported.
Shokin was Ukraine’s attorney general from February 2015 to April 2016. Since 2017 he has been trying to return to office, arguing that his dismissal was illegal and that, according to the law, “he has another two years and four months in office.”
Shokin claims that Biden tried to “end” the investigation of criminal proceedings into the facts of the illegal activities of people associated with the Ukrainian company Burisma. He also suspects that the former vice president of the United States was involved in the assassination attempt against him: in September 2019, Shokin was hospitalized after two cardiac arrests; his diagnosis was “mercury poisoning,” said Nikolai Korpan, a physician at the Rudolfinerhaus clinic in Vienna.
In January 2018, Biden said that in exchange for $ 1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, he demanded that the president and prime minister of Ukraine remove Attorney General Shokin. “And that son of a bitch was fired, in his place they put someone they trust at that time,” said the former vice president of the United States. Shokin responded that Biden’s statement confirmed once again that his dismissal took place illegally and under external pressure on the Ukrainian leadership.
On February 27, 2020, Shokin’s lawyer, Oleksandr Teleshetskiy, said that the Ukrainian State Bureau of Investigation had opened criminal proceedings in the face of possible pressure on Shokin from Biden.
In the United States, on November 3, 2020, the main vote in the presidential elections took place. More than 10 candidates ran for the job, the main competitors were Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Biden. Previously, Biden led the elections.
