A newly released FBI report reveals that Burisma executives questioned Hunter Biden’s intelligence and castigated him privately, despite hiring him to obtain political protection from Joe Biden.
Hunter Biden was hired by Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company under criminal investigation by Ukrainian prosecutors, to join its board of directors with a monthly salary of $50,000 despite having no experience in the energy industry, in order to “protect us, through his dad, from all kinds or problems,” the report reads. In earlier conversations with the source, the company’s CEO and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) both disparaged Hunter’s intelligence, according to the report’s text.

“Zlochevsky made some comment that although Hunter Biden was stupid, and his (Zlochevsky’s) dog was smarter,” Zlochevsky needed to keep Hunter Biden (on the board) “so everything will be okay,” the source recounted to the FBI, following a conversation in 2015. “Zlochevsky” refers to Mykola Zlochesky, a former Ukrainian government minister and Burisma’s CEO, who hired Hunter Biden in 2013 to join the board while his father was vice president of the United States.
During this time, then- Vice President Joe Biden had been pushing anti-corruption measures in Ukraine but neglected to publicly name Zlochevsky as a corrupt oligarch despite the State Department viewing him as one, according to a report by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs in 2020. “This stands in stark contrast to the decision of then-Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt to call out Zlochevsky by name as an example of corruption in a September 2015 speech,” the Senate report read.
