US senators suspect Biden's family in financial deals with Elena Baturina

US senators from the Republican Party claim that Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential candidate Joseph Biden, made "suspicious deals" with Russian entrepreneur Elena Baturina. Such data are contained in a report published on the website of the Committee of Homeland Security and Government Affairs of the US Senate on Wednesday, September 23.

Suspicious financial transactions have been disclosed between Hunter Biden and his partners and foreign parties, including Elena Baturina, and individuals with ties to the Chinese Communist Party, according to Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Chairman Ron Johnson and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley for millions of dollars.

Thus, the Rosemont Seneca Thornton firm, in which Biden Jr. is one of the founders, allegedly received $ 3.5 million by bank transfer from a Russian entrepreneur. The authors of the report believe that the Biden family was involved in a kind of large-scale financial network that unites them with foreign citizens and governments around the world, writes TASS.

On November 11, 2019, Ukrainian MP Andriy Derkach accused Hunter Biden of receiving funds from Burisma through an intermediary company Rosemont Seneca Boa. According to the deputy, at least $ 16.5 million was transferred in favor of intermediaries and Biden Jr. in total. He also added that earlier the financial intelligence of Latvia had transferred the Prosecutor General's Office and the State Financial Monitoring Service of Ukraine materials about the possible involvement of Hunter Biden in corruption schemes.

In September, a scandal erupted in the United States after the publication of information that during a July conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the head of the White House, Donald Trump, called on Kiev to investigate the activities of Hunter Biden, the son of Joe Biden, who is a candidate for the nomination of the Democratic Party in the presidential elections in 2020 year, in exchange for financial and military assistance. This information became the reason for the Democrats to launch the Trump impeachment procedure. However, information about pressure against Ukraine was denied after the White House published a transcript of the conversation.
