VP Joe Biden met with two Chinese energy execs in the West Wing

>

Two Chinese businessmen with ties to Hunter Biden’s company met with Joe Biden at the White House and followed up with the VP’s son days later with a fawning email and invitation, records reveal.

The meeting is the fifteenth to be uncovered between Joe and businessmen linked to Hunter.

Executives for Chinese energy company Wanxiang secured a meeting with the vice president in the West Wing in July 2014 with just one day’s notice, according to White House visitor logs.

A client of Hunter’s company Seneca Global Advisors partnered with Wanxiang in 2012 on a $1.25billion natural gas plant in China.

The ceremony for the signing of the deal between Hunter’s client GreatPoint Energy and Wanxiang was attended by then Chinese vice president Xi Jinping.

Wanxiang is a major Chinese company, and also partnered with the North Korean state for a giant copper mine.

Four days later, Ni emailed Hunter offering help servicing his Fisker sports car.

‘Last Friday when we visited DC, I heard that your Fisker is out of order and could not get serviced. Sorry,’ Ni wrote.

‘It would be our honor to get your Fisker fixed

HUNTER’S LAWYER’S CURIOUS RESPONSE TO OUR COMMENT REQUEST 

When DailyMail.com asked Hunter’s criminal defense lawyer, Chris Clark, about his client’s relationship with Wanxiang, the Latham and Watkins attorney sent back a near-unintelligible response at 9.06pm EST on Thursday.

‘Please quote me.

Josh you are a parasite who lives of other peoples difficulties. Your parents won’t mount you.

Pls include an explaination from ‘news corp’ lawyers of you exclude this comment this from your as to why you have done so after asking. Me fo my comment.

Please’

NOTE: Clark, who has previously specialized in media industry cases, appeared to be under the mistaken impression that DailyMail.com is a News Corp company, owned by media mogul Rupert Murdoch. DailyMail.com is in fact owned by the Daily Mail and General Trust.

He did not comment on the First Son’s criminal investigation, including the reported focus by prosecutors on the $142,300 Hunter received from a Kazakh oligarch to buy his Fisker sports car.

Joe’s meeting with the two Wanxiang executives is one of 15 occasions he met with businessmen closely linked to his son.

Despite this and other damning evidence revealed by DailyMail.com about the president’s relationship with Hunter’s business partners, Joe and his spokespeople still claim that he never discussed his son’s overseas business dealings with Hunter.

 

Joe’s meetings with the other 14 of Hunter’s business associates, previously detailed by DailyMail.com,  include:

  • Entertaining Hunter’s Mexican billionaire business partners Carlos Slim, Miguel Aleman Velasco and Miguel Aleman Magnani at the Vice President’s official residence in 2014
  • Meeting with Hunter’s tech startup business partner and big Democrat donor Jeff Cooper at the White House
  • Joining a dinner at a Washington DC restaurant with Hunter’s associates former Kazakhstan Prime Minister Karim Massimov and Kazakh oligarch Kenes Rakishev; and Vadym Pozharskyi, an executive at allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas company Burisma
  • Meeting Hunter’s Chinese business partner Jonathan Li on a trip to China in 2013
  • Meeting Tony Bobulinski, a partner in Hunter’s controversial deal with a Chinese oil giant, in Los Angeles in 2017, according to Bobulinski’s texts
  • Meeting Hunter’s best friend, business partner and now convicted fraudster Devon Archer at the White House just days before Archer and Hunter were appointed to the Burisma board in 2014
  • Dozens of meetings with Hunter’s consultancy partner Eric Schwerin, who also handled Joe’s taxes and visited the White House 27 times during Joe’s tenure as vice president
  • White House meetings with Francis Person, a former Biden aide who later pitched Hunter on business in China
  • Manuel Estrella, who partnered with Hunter on Latin American startups, met Joe in June 2014
  • Hunter’s former Rosemont Seneca partner and stepson of former senator John Kerry, Chris Heinz, met Joe in the West Wing in April 2011

Hunter bought his Fisker Karma sports car from a New Jersey dealership using $142,300 sent to his company by Kazakhstani banking oligarch Kenes Rakishev.

The payment was highlighted in a Senate homeland security committee report on the First Son’s business dealings in 2020.

Rakishev and former Kazakh prime minister Karim Massimov are two of Hunter’s 15 associates who met with the president.

The two men posed for a photo with Hunter and Joe at Washington DC restaurant Café Milano, a dinner which Joe at first denied attending before the photo emerged. Rakishev was discussing potential business plans with Hunter around that time.

The Wall Street Journal reported in March that Rakishev’s payment is part of the federal investigation into alleged tax crimes and illegal foreign lobbying by the First Son, and that witnesses were questioned by the grand jury over the money transfer.
