Hunter Biden sought State Department help for Ukrainian company

SUMMARY

Hunter Biden sought help from the U.S. ambassador to Italy in 2016 for a geothermal project involving the Ukrainian gas company Burisma while his father served as vice president.

He reached out because Burisma was struggling with regulatory approvals for the project.

This information comes from recent records and interviews reported by The New York Times.

The revelation is expected to intensify Republican criticism of Hunter Biden's foreign business matters, which are under investigation.

This report emerges just weeks before Hunter Biden's trial related to federal tax charges linked to his earnings from Burisma and other foreign entities.
