According to the conversation between a confidential source and Burisma’s CFO Vadim Pojarski in 2015, Hunter Biden was appointed to the company’s board of directors to “protect us from all sorts of problems through his father.”
Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky told the source, “It costs 5 (million) to pay one Biden and 5 (million) to pay another Biden.”
