Hunter Biden to Step Down from Chinese Company Board

HeadlineOct 14, 2019

Joe Biden’s son Hunter says he’ll step down from the board of Chinese company BHR, after President Trump repeatedly attacked Hunter over his overseas business practices and openly called for the leaders of Ukraine and China to investigate his political rival Joe Biden and his son for corruption. Trump’s apparent effort to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Hunter is at the center of the House’s impeachment inquiry. On Sunday, Hunter Biden’s lawyer said if Biden is elected, his son would not “serve on boards of, or work on behalf of, foreign-owned companies.”
