Hunter Biden defends taking position on Burisma board

Source: The Hill

Hunter Biden on Monday defended his decision to serve on the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma, but acknowledged he would not do it again after the position became a point of attack for the Trump campaign during the 2020 election.

The president's son, in a pair of CBS interviews to promote his new memoir, was adamant that he did nothing wrong and that he was qualified to serve on the board of Burisma, contrary to claims from former President Donald Trump and his allies.

"The question of whether I would do it again, though, is no," Hunter Biden said on "CBS This Morning."

"I didn't fully comprehend the level to which this former administration and the people around it would go," he added when asked whether he felt the role would make him a political target. "The difference between the politics that you're talking about in terms of the last, you know, four years is a very different game. And I don't... ever want to again to hand a weapon to people that would use it in a illegitimate way that they used the weapon of me against my dad."
