Gordon Sondland became the latest impeachment witness to affirm Republican concerns about a possible conflict of interest by Hunter Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden’s son.
Hunter Biden served on the board of Burisma from 2014 to 2019. His father was in office from 2008 to 2016. In 2016, Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion from Ukraine unless the country ousted prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was probing Burisma. The case was closed by Shokin’s replacement, Yuriy Lutsenko.
