Gaetz: Hunter Biden's Burisma Role a 'Bribe Masquerading as Business'

Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz has made a public statement accusing Hunter Biden of engaging in a bribe disguised as an international business transaction, stating, "It is a mirage to believe that Hunter Biden was engaged in international business. This was a bribe masquerading as an international business transaction--nothing more, nothing less." Gaetz's remarks highlight his belief that Hunter Biden's involvement with the Burisma board was not for business purposes but was instead a form of corruption. He specifically mentioned Hunter Biden's claim of joining the Burisma board to counter Russian aggression as a facade for the alleged bribery.
