We reported on this yesterday, citing RT. Of course, RT, the Kremlin-backed media arm, while describing the company, left out the critical fact that the company was controlled by a Yanukovych official and ally.
So Joe Biden’s son and John Kerry’s stepson’s college roommate form a partnership and get in bed with people aligned with the Yanukovych government, but Biden doesn’t see any conflict of interest there.
Just a whole lot of “flexibility” going on there…
Via WSJ:
Vice President Joe Biden’s son and a close friend of Secretary of State John Kerry’s stepson have joined the board of a Ukrainian gas producer controlled by a former top security and energy official for deposed President Viktor Yanukovych.
The move has attracted attention given Messrs. Biden’s and Kerry’s public roles in diplomacy toward Ukraine, where the U.S. expressed support for pro-Western demonstrators who toppled Mr. Yanukovych’s Kremlin-backed government in February. The uprising provoked a pro-Russia backlash that has plunged the post-Soviet republic into conflict and brought it to the brink of civil war.
