Introduction

In recent years, the Biden family, specifically Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, have been embroiled in a series of controversies involving their business dealings with foreign nationals, particularly from Ukraine and China. One key figure in these allegations is Victor Shokin, the former Prosecutor General of Ukraine. Shokin's firing, which Biden bragged about orchestrating, effectively ended investigations into a Ukrainian energy company, Burisma, where Hunter Biden served on the board. This article will introduce Victor Shokin and explore his relationship with the Bidens and the broader allegations of corruption.


Who is Victor Shokin?

Victor Shokin is a former Ukrainian official who served as the Prosecutor General of Ukraine from February 2015 until his removal in March 2016. Shokin's career has been marked by controversy, with critics accusing him of failing to tackle corruption during his tenure. However, it is his removal from office and the circumstances surrounding it that have brought him international attention and placed him at the center of allegations of corruption involving the Biden family.



Hunter Biden Joins Burisma

Hunter Biden, the son of Joe Biden, joined the board of directors of Burisma Holdings, one of Ukraine's largest private natural gas producers, in April 2014. His appointment raised eyebrows from the start, as he had no apparent experience in the energy sector or in Ukrainian affairs. At the time, Joe Biden was the Vice President of the United States and was heavily involved in the Obama administration's policy towards Ukraine.



Allegations of Corruption

Burisma has faced numerous allegations of corruption over the years. The company's founder and CEO, Mykola Zlochevsky, is a former Ukrainian government minister who has been accused of using his position to benefit his business interests. Victor Shokin, the former Prosecutor General of Ukraine, was investigating Burisma and its officials, including Zlochevsky, for alleged corruption and money laundering.


Hunter Biden's role at Burisma has been the subject of much scrutiny. Critics argue that his appointment to the board was an attempt by Burisma to gain influence with the Obama administration and protect itself from investigation. Hunter Biden was paid a reported $83,000 per month for his position on the board, a sum that has raised questions about the nature of his role at the company.



The End of the Investigation

Victor Shokin's removal as Prosecutor General in March 2016 effectively ended the investigation into Burisma. Joe Biden has publicly stated that he played a role in Shokin's removal, threatening to withhold a billion dollars in aid from Ukraine unless Shokin was fired. Biden and his supporters argue that Shokin's removal was necessary due to his failure to tackle corruption. However, Shokin and others allege that his removal was orchestrated to protect Burisma and the Biden family from scrutiny.


In a recent Fox News interview, Victor Shokin detailed the timeline of how Joe Biden's influence affected his career and the investigation into Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company accused of engaging in illegal activities. Hunter Biden, Joe Biden's son, was a board member of Burisma and was allegedly brought in to provide protection for the company's founder and CEO. Shokin's investigation into Burisma and its officials made him a target, and he alleges that his removal from office was orchestrated by Joe Biden to protect his son and the company.



Conclusion

Victor Shokin's removal as Prosecutor General of Ukraine and the role Joe Biden played in it has raised serious questions about the Biden family's business dealings and whether they used their influence to protect their interests. As investigations into these allegations continue, Victor Shokin remains a key figure in understanding the extent of the Biden family's involvement in foreign business dealings and potential corruption.
