The FBI uncovered secret plans made by Hunter Biden and his partners back in 2016 to kick off a new business venture in Liechtenstein with a massive $120 million investment from a Ukrainian energy company, Burisma Holdings. This information was kept hidden from the public for eight years. The documents seized by the FBI during a securities fraud investigation revealed this scheme. Hunter Biden was aiming to be part of a company called Burnham Energy Security LLC, funded by the owner of Burisma, Nykola Zlochevsky. The plan was to make Burisma a major player in the global energy market.
During this time, Hunter Biden was part of Burisma’s board while his father, Joe Biden, was the Vice President of the United States overseeing U.S.-Ukraine policy. The investigation also showed that Hunter Biden was expected to be a director at the new company without making any financial contribution. The FBI found emails discussing the venture and its connections to Ukrainian officials.

This deal took an unexpected turn when one of Hunter Biden’s associates was arrested in a securities fraud case, and the U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine urged the country’s prosecutors to investigate Zlochevsky for corruption. Burisma hired a lobbying firm to handle the situation and tried to influence U.S. officials to prevent any investigations into the company. This venture faced challenges as the political climate in Ukraine shifted.
The proposed business partnership aimed to expand Burisma’s energy production in Ukraine and globally. The plan included acquiring rights to explore and extract hydrocarbons in Ukraine and other countries. The partnership is considered to involve Hunter Biden and other prominent figures to boost their global connections. The documents also indicated a plan to establish an entity in Liechtenstein for tax benefits and to maintain anonymity for the Ukrainian oligarch involved.
The scheme ultimately fell apart due to the legal issues Hunter Biden’s partners faced. Both Hunter Biden and his associates were accused of using political connections for financial gain. This revelation sheds light on the questionable business dealings involving the Biden family and their associates.
