Hunter Biden’s emails and financial records contradict his previous claims of not benefiting financially from his role on the board of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma.
Despite his denial, evidence suggests that he and his business partner received significant payments from Burisma, with bank records indicating a total of $6.5 million.
“So you think it makes sense for me to write some sort of op/ed explaining my role as an independent director with no equity interest in the company. The objective would be to clarify that I don’t ‘work’ for Burisma and that I don’t stand to gain anything as I am not an equity shareholder in the company,” Hunter wrote.

“My decision to join the board was made in the context of lending support and ‘western’ corporate governance standards to a vital Ukrainian company and industry under siege from pro-Putin/ Russian forces,” he added.
Additionally, emails show discussions about leveraging his connections, including his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, to increase his potential pay.
“That would bring us to roughly 4.85M jointly from Burisma. If that actually happens we should consider two things: 1- making a 200-250K RSB investment into Counsyl and 2- I INVESTED $200K OF MY PA IN THIS ROUND. I WOULD DO MORE,” an email read.
“Let Nikolay know how much I appreciate his friendship and loyalty,” Hunter wrote.
“I truly believe in what we are doing and I’m proud to say I am a part of this organization. And I am so glad you and I are on the same team.”
Furthermore, Hunter’s recent indictment in California includes tax-related charges related to his earnings from Burisma and involvement with a Chinese energy conglomerate.
The investigation also seeks to discover whether President Biden was involved in Hunter’s business dealings, which Hunter denied.
“My father was not financially involved in my business,” Hunter stated.
“No evidence to support that my father was financially involved in my business because it did not happen.”
