The White House responded on March 30, local time, to former U.S. President Trump's public call for Russian President Vladimir Putin to expose Biden's son's "black material", saying that the timing of these remarks was very bad amid the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and criticized "There is only one person (who can do such a thing)" and that is Trump.

　　At a press conference on the 30th, a reporter mentioned Trump's remarks to Kate Bedingfield, director of the White House Communications Office, who responded by saying: "What kind of American, let alone the former president, Think now is the right time to work with Putin and brag about your relationship with Putin?"

　　"There's only one person (who can do such a thing), and that's Trump," Bedingfield said.

　　The American "Politics" news network pointed out that with regard to Biden's son Hunter Biden being considered to have business dealings with Eastern European oligarchs, the White House has often adopted an evasive attitude, explaining that Hunter Biden does not work for the US government.

The White House's response to Trump's remarks this time confronted the problem head-on.

　　On the 29th, CNN reported that Trump publicly called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to disclose any "black material" about U.S. President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden in an interview with the media that day.

"I think Putin knows the inside story. He should have exposed it as soon as possible, and I think people need to know the truth," Trump said.

In response, CNN criticized in the report that Trump's move was "brazen and blatant to ask America's number one adversary to provide him with domestic political assistance."

　　Trump's comments came as the U.S. judiciary's investigation into Hunter Biden's finances is still ongoing.

Hunter, born in 1970, is the second son of US President Joe Biden.

From 2014 to 2019, Hunt was well-paid as a board member of a major Ukrainian energy company.

The U.S. Justice Department has previously opened criminal investigations into Hunter's dealings and potential financial crimes, but there is no evidence to support Trump's claims that the Biden family is involved in corruption or influencing U.S. policy for personal gain, and President Biden has not been arrested. involved in the investigation.
