Donald Trump has asked Russian President Vladimir Putin, who ordered the invasion of Ukraine last month, to help reveal any information he might have about Hunter Biden, the son of US President Joe Biden.
The former Republican president has resumed accusations he repeated during the losing campaign against Biden in the 2020 election.
And in an excerpt from the interview, which was broadcast on “Just the News” last Tuesday (29), on Real America’s Voice platform, Trump said that the wife of the Moscow mayor gave Hunter Biden $3.5 million.
“That’s a lot of money,” he said. “I think Putin might know the answer to that. I think he should reveal it. I think we should know the answer,” he added.
The House of Representatives accused Trump in 2019 of trying to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to reveal what he said was showing information about Biden’s son, who worked for a Ukrainian energy company.
In the 2016 election campaign, which he won, Trump made a public plea to Moscow to find the missing emails from then-Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you can find the 30,000 missing emails, I think our press will probably be rewarded very much,” Trump said in an interview in July 2016.
