The head of the Department for Finance of the Senate, Chuck Grassley and the Head of the Department of homeland security, Ron Johnson, representing the Republican party of the United States, sent a letter to state attorney General William Barr asking to investigate connection with the Ukraine, former us Vice-President Joe Biden and former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The letter is a continuation request sent Grassley in 2017, the U.S. justice Department with a request to test the data about the fact that the Democrats and Clinton tried the year before to apply to the Ukrainian authorities to discredit the then presidential candidate Donald trump.
The senators remind that by results beginning in 2017, "the Russian investigation" spectacular Robert Mueller found no evidence of "collusion" trump with the Russian authorities.
because of this, Grassley and Johnson require Barr to answer the question, whether the Ministry of justice, the proceedings in respect of communications between headquarters Clinton and the authorities of Ukraine and why the Ukrainian citizen Alexander Chalupa has not been registered in the United States as "a foreign agent" (for comparison: for lack of such registration in 2019 in the United States was sentenced the Citizen of Russia Maria Butina).
Separately, the Senators need to find out the role of Biden's dismissal in 2016, the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin, who led the proceedings in relation to the organization Burisma, where he worked as the son of a politician - hunter Biden.
for reviews of legislators, not long ago published the documents " call into question the stated reasons for the ultimatum... Biden to fire the Ukrainian Prosecutor who investigated the company that Biden's son was a member of the Board of Directors."
Biden himself, who admitted that he forced the Ukrainian authorities to dismiss Shokin is explained by the extremely poor performance of the public Prosecutor.
The letter of Johnson and Grassley focuses on the background to the impeachment of trump, which first initiated the democratic minority of the house of authorized Congress.
The procedure was started after reports in the media about the fact that in conversation with President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky trump could request that the investigation regarding hunter Biden and Democrats about the relations with Ukraine. Published transcript agreed that the head of the United States have expressed such request. Democrats see it as an attempt to use the Ukrainian authorities in the election campaign-2020 to discredit Joe Biden, who is running for the position of head of the country. Trump denies these charges.
