c*******e 发帖数: 5818 | 1 Ex-Ukraine prosecutor said he was told to back off probe of Biden-linked
firm, files show
The fired prosecutor at the center of the Ukraine controversy said during a
private interview with President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani
earlier this year that he was told to back off an investigation involving a
natural gas firm that was linked to Joe Biden’s son, according to details
of that interview that were handed over to Congress by the State Department
’s inspector general Wednesday.
Fox News obtained a copy of Giuliani’s notes from his January 2019
interview with fired Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin in which he claimed
that his “investigations stopped out of fear of the United States.”
“Mr. Shokin attempted to continue the investigations but on or around June
or July of 2015, the U.S. Ambassador Geoffrey R. Pyatt told him that the
investigation has to be handled with white gloves, which according to Mr.
Shokin, that implied do nothing,” the notes from the interview stated. The
notes also claimed Shokin was told Biden had held up U.S. aid to Ukraine
over the investigation. |
