The fifth president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko in his Telegram -channel congratulated the candidate from US Democratic Party in the presidential election Joe Biden Happy Birthday.
According to Poroshenko, he highly values ”the insight and incomparable experience, energy and strategic vision” of the American politician.
“Ukraine believes in your wisdom and transatlantic leadership in the face of many challenges. Remain steadfast in your convictions in the interests of a democratic world order!” – wrote Poroshenko.
Supporters of the current US President Donald Trump accuse Biden of corruption. In their opinion, the politician, being the vice-president of Barack Obama administration , patronized his son Hunter’s business in Ukraine. Until 2019, he was a member of the board of directors of the oil and gas company Burisma Holdings.
In May, a criminal case on high treason was opened against Poroshenko. The reason was an audio recording in which, allegedly, Biden offered Poroshenko a billion dollars for the resignation of Viktor Shokin from the post of attorney general. He was investigating the illegal activities of Burisma in Ukraine.
