Hunter Biden’s business thrived following Joe Biden’s attendance at two important dinners.
Joe Biden’s Involvement in Son’s Business Dealings Revealed Through Dinner Meetings
After then-Vice President Joe Biden attended a dinner in April 2015 with Hunter Biden and his foreign business associates from Ukraine and Kazakhstan, business between those two countries seemed to thrive.
Around the time he attended another dinner in spring 2014, his son received significant payments from two of the foreign attendees.
The dinners, which have gained extensive media coverage since 2020 due to emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop, provide compelling evidence that Joe Biden was more involved in his son’s business dealings than he publicly admitted.
Recent disclosures have shed light on the importance of these dinners, adding crucial context to well-known events.
The First Dinner: Spring 2014
Ahead of the first dinner in spring 2014, Hunter Biden and his business partners were discussing the idea of bringing wealthy oligarchs from around the world together to form a lucrative ”global cooperation group.” They were specifically looking for a high-profile figure to attract foreign investors.
The guest list for the dinner included Kenes Rakishev, a Kazakh oligarch with whom Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, wanted to do business. Rakishev eventually attended the dinner where Joe Biden was present, and a widely-circulated photograph of the two together was likely taken.
It is unclear when exactly the dinner took place, but it was evident that Hunter Biden and his partners were working to create investment opportunities with their foreign associates, believing that Joe Biden’s attendance would help their cause.
In March 2014, Hunter Biden mentioned the idea of bringing Rakishev to the gathering, and in April 2014, Rakishev sent Hunter Biden a payment of $142,300 for a sports car on the same day Joe Biden appeared publicly alongside Ukrainian leaders in Kyiv.
Joe Biden’s remarks during his appearance in Ukraine, advocating for the expansion of the Ukrainian energy sector, were significant to Hunter Biden and his business partners at Burisma.
By December 2014, Burisma and the Kazakh energy company where Rakishev served as a director were working on a memorandum of understanding to conduct business together.
The Second Dinner: April 2015
In the spring of 2015, Hunter Biden discussed the prospect of another dinner with a new foreign business associate, Michael Karloutsos. They were pursuing business deals in Greece and sought investments from Romania and China.
The specific purpose and guest list for the April 16, 2015 dinner, which Joe Biden eventually attended, are not yet known. However, Hunter Biden expressed a desire to keep the dinner secret and mentioned discussing “food security” as the ostensible reason for the gathering.
Contrary to initial denials from Joe Biden’s political team, evidence suggests that Joe Biden’s presence at the dinner was planned well in advance. Emails between Hunter Biden and Michael Karloutsos confirm that Joe Biden had agreed to attend at least three weeks before the event.
During the dinner, Joe Biden spoke with the entire table and stayed for the entire duration, contradicting claims that he only spoke to Alex Karloutsos and left early.
At least some business related to Burisma appeared to be conducted at the dinner, with discussions about the company’s work in Kazakhstan and progress being made.
These dinner meetings provide significant evidence of Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s business dealings and raise questions about the extent of his knowledge and influence.
