Hunter Biden于2016年向一家乌克兰公司寻求美国帮助, Hunter Biden sought U.S. help for a Ukrainian firm in 2016, raising questions about foreign agent laws.

《纽约时报》发现有证据表明,当时的副总统乔·拜登之子亨特·拜登在其父亲任期内为一家乌克兰能源公司布利斯马寻求美国政府的帮助。 The New York Times has uncovered evidence suggesting that Hunter Biden, son of then-Vice President Joe Biden, sought help from the U.S. government for a Ukrainian energy firm, Burisma, during his father's tenure. Hunter于2016年写信给美国驻意大利大使, 为地热工程争取援助。 Hunter wrote a letter to the U.S. ambassador to Italy in 2016 to secure assistance for a geothermal project. 这就提出了为什么亨特没有根据《外国代理人登记法》作为未登记的外国代理人受到指控的问题,这与其他类似情况相似。 This raises questions about why Hunter was not charged as an unregistered foreign agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, similar to others in similar situations. 拜登政府扣留这些记录多年。 The Biden administration had withheld these records for years.
