Former Ukraine prosecutor says he saw no evidence of wrongdoing by Biden
KYIV, Ukraine
Ukraines former top law enforcement official says he repeatedly rebuffed demands by President Trumps personal lawyer to investigate Joe Biden and his son, insisting he had seen no evidence of wrongdoing that he could pursue.
In an interview, Yuri Lutsenko said while he was Ukraines prosecutor general he told Rudolph W. Giuliani that he would be happy to cooperate if the FBI or other U.S. authorities began their own investigation of the former vice president and his son Hunter but insisted they had not broken any Ukrainian laws to his knowledge.
Lutsenko, who was fired as prosecutor general last month, said he had urged Giuliani to launch a U.S. inquiry and go to court if he had any evidence but not to use Ukraine to conduct a political vendetta that could affect the U.S. election.
I said, Lets put this through prosecutors, not through presidents, Lutsenko told The Times.
I told him I could not start an investigation just for the interests of an American official, he said.
