The Biden-Ukraine corruption case: chronology and facts

[hater]

After the firing, the two large men escorted the fund’s president out of the firm’s midtown Manhattan office, and James Biden laid out his vision for the fund’s future. “Don’t worry about investors,” he said, according to the executive, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing fear of retaliation. “We've got people all around the world who want to invest in Joe Biden.”

At the time, the senator was just months away from both assuming the chairmanship of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and launching his second presidential bid. According to the executive, James Biden made it clear he viewed the fund as a way to take money from rich foreigners who could not legally give money to his older brother or his campaign account. “We've got investors lined up in a line of 747s filled with cash ready to invest in this company,” the executive remembers James Biden saying.

At this, the executive recalled, Beau Biden, who was then running for attorney general of Delaware, turned bright red. He told his uncle, “This can never leave this room, and if you ever say it again, I will have nothing to do with this.”

A spokesman for James and Hunter Biden said no such episode ever occurred. Beau Biden died in 2015, at 46.

But the recollection of an effort to cash in on Joe’s political ties is consistent with other accounts provided by other former executives at the fund.

Three former Paradigm executives said James and Hunter Biden also sought to capitalize on Joe’s strong ties to labor unions in the hopes of landing investments from them; Charles Provini, who briefly served as Paradigm’s president, said both James and Hunter repeatedly cited Joe’s political ties when they recruited him to work for the fund. “I was told because of his relationships with the unions that they felt as though it would be favorably looked upon to invest in the fund as long as it was a good fund,” Provini recalled.

Do ents submitted as part of a legal dispute over Paradigm’s acquisition show James Biden planned to solicit investments for it from union pension funds. A spokesman for James and Hunter said they did not end up marketing the fund to unions.

How is this smoke and mirrors? Shokin sworn statement to Austrian court:


https://www.scribd.com/do ent/4276...okin-Statement

The truth is that I was forced out because I was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into Burisma Holdings ("Burisma"), a natural gas firm active in Ukraine, and Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, was a member of the Board of Directors. I assume Burisma, which was connected with gas extraction, had the support of the US Vice-President Joe Biden because his son was on the board of Directors.
. . . Therefore I was forced to leave office, under direct and intense pressure from Joe Biden and the US administration. In my conversation with Poroshenko at the time, he was emphatic that I should cease my investigations regarding Burisma. When I did not, he said that the US (via Biden) were refusing to release USD$ 1 billion promised to Ukraine. He said that b he had no choice, therefore, but to ask me to resign.

"90% of Ukrnaftoburinnya is owned by a Cypriot company, Deripon Commercial Ltd. (...) This company has often been involved in various financial schemes of the Privat Group and especially with Ihor Kolomoisky. The owners of Ukrnaftoburinnya, Pari, and Esko-Pivnich were finally confirmed through first-hand sources. Oleh Kanivets worked as CEO of Ukrnaftoburinnya for two years. He confirmed who actually controlled the above-mentioned companies to “Slidstvo.Info”.
' – The Privat Group is the immediate owner. This company was founded by Mykola Zlochevsky some time ago, but he later sold his shares to the Privat Group.' "


Looks like Kokomoinsky bought Burisma from Zlocgevsky

What could this mean?

If true then the true owner of Burisma was a US fríendly olygarch. Same one who owns Media company that employed Zelensky and also the biggest backer of another US puppet who almost becomes president Yulia Timoshenko

... you believe corrupt, probably criminal Shokin, who would probably "swear" anything to save his ass, over all the US and West European officials who knew he wasn't doing about Burisma?

[hater]

I didn't say I believe him tbqh

But a sworn statement is worthy of post imo

He had nothing to gain by throwing Biden under the bus. He was never found guilty of any crime much less lying to a court. So imo its noteworthy at the very least.

Unless a person has been found guilty of a crime or lying to a court, I will consider his statement as important

Damn so burisma was owned by the patreon of both zelensky and timoshenko? I know what this means. Absolutely nothing will happen. There will be no investigation into this because both Ukrainian and us corruption would be unmasked.

This is all a show

Ukraine was a den of snakes even before the coup imo. But US came in and tried by force to install their loyal oligarchs and remove any unloyal ones. They called it an operation against corruption but in reality was operation to install US loyal oligarchs.

Looks like the prosecutor was being a bit too fair to US liking and why they had him removed. I don't believe Biden acted alone of course in his firing but the details get murky when you take a look at Burisma ownership and corruption case

Checking, but I'm probably getting him confused with his deputy. Question remains even if it's the Ukraine: Can Shokin be prosecuted for perjury in Austria while in the Ukraine?

Trump appointee at the CIA made a criminal referral to DOJ:

Weeks before the whistleblower's complaint became public, the CIA's top lawyer made what she considered to be a criminal referral to the Justice Department about the whistleblower's allegations that President Donald Trump abused his office in pressuring the Ukrainian president, U.S. officials familiar with the matter tell NBC News.

The move by the CIA's general counsel, Trump appointee Courtney Simmons Elwood, meant she and other senior officials had concluded a potential crime had been committed...
