“He didn’t commit anything illegal,” he said.

Biden noted that he could not even imagine the possibility of US President Donald Trump and his lawyer Rudolf Giuliani expressing “conspiracy theories” about his activities at Burisma.

He also admitted that he probably would not have been on the board of the company if his father had not been vice president of the United States at that time.

Earlier it was reported that according to documents released in Ukraine, Burisma transferred at least $ 16.5 million to Hunter Biden, Alexander Kwasniewski, Alan Upper and Devon Archer.

In September, Trump announced that the son of former vice president Joe Biden received money from Ukraine and China.

The White House published a transcript of the conversation between Trump and Zelensky, during which the US president reminded his Ukrainian colleague about preventing Joe Biden from investigating his son Hunter. Zelensky promised that the new prosecutor general will study the situation.
