Hunter Biden's involvement in Chinese company's attempt to purchase US nuclear reactors revealed

Politics Notícia

Hunter Biden tried to help Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-linked entity CEFC China Energy Co. purchase a maker of U.S. nuclear reactors in 2016, a strategy memo and testimony given to the House impeachment inquiry shows. The chairman of CEFC was Ye Jianming, who paid Hunter a $1 million retainer fee for legal services. The memo obtained by lawmakers suggests CEFC's goal was to exploit Hunter's proximity to the Obama White House to allow the controversial deal to go through — all while shielding the transaction between CEFC and Westinghouse, the maker of nuclear reactors.
