WASHINGTON — Newly unclassified FBI files set to be released Tuesday by Sen. Chuck Grassley will reveal more bribery allegations involving former first son Hunter Biden and former President Joe Biden that may have never been fully investigated.
The files recorded two interviews in 2019 and 2017 with confidential bureau informants who shared details about the Biden family being linked to a possible foreign bribery “scheme” with the owner of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, Mykola Zlochevsky, according to copies reviewed by The Post.
The informants alleged that Zlochevsky sought to bribe then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko with $100 million to stop an “Interpol investigation” into him in exchange for “shares and guaranteed profits from gas sales,” including from Burisma, which Joe and Hunter Biden had “money invested into” via a Latvian “shell company.”
They also alleged that Joe Biden met directly with Poroshenko “to protect the interests” of his son and, by extension, Zlochevsky, who was paying Hunter around $1 million per year between May 2014 and April 2019 to serve on Burisma’s board.
The former vice president’s effort to protect Burisma’s owner was also allegedly supported by members of the US Intelligence Community.
“Two CIA officers took Zlochevsky into the office of Yuriy Lutsenko, who is the Prosecutor General of Ukraine,” reads the first file, also known as an FD-1023, drawn from an in-person interview with a confidential human source on Feb. 21, 2019.
