Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House Press Secretary, has yet again dodged questions in the latest press briefing at the White House. This time her evasive moves were regarding two Russian billionaires, and their, seemingly obvious, connection with the Biden family.

Jean-Pierre refused to explain the connection between the two billionaires from Russia and Hunter Biden. Due to the Biden Laptop, we do know they are directly associated with Hunter Biden. They are also not facing any U.S. sanctions despite being involved in the Ukraine and Russia conflict.
Yelana Baturina and Vladimir Yevtushenkov, the two oligarchs in question, were linked with Hunter Biden as they were looking for property investments in the U.S. This was during Joe Biden’s vice presidency under the Obama administration.

As stated before the information about the Russian billionaires’ connection with President Biden’s son was leaked from Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop which he left abandoned at a Delaware repair shop.
“If you could share the reason why President Biden hasn’t sanctioned the Russian billionaires Vladimir Yevtushenkov and Yelena Baturina? How is he handling the conflict of interest there given his son was a business associate of these two people? And can you confirm that, as sitting vice president, he dined with Baturina in Georgetown?” Asked a reporter in the press briefing.

Jean-Pierre responded:
“I’m just not speaking to anything that’s related to his son from here. If you want to ask a question about Hunter Biden specifically, I would refer you to his family. And as it relates to any sanctions, I’m not speaking to individual persons from Russia” Jean-Pierre deflected.
It was previously reported that the two Russian billionaires also met Joe Biden, when he was the VP, for dinner and also talked about potential “favors” they could swap.
