WASHINGTON — Hunter Biden asked the U.S. ambassador to Italy for help regarding an energy project a Ukrainian gas company was pursuing while his father was vice president, according to The New York Times.

Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, wrote a letter to the ambassador in 2016 seeking assistance for Burisma, which had been working on a geothermal project in Italy, the newspaper reported, citing newly released records and interviews.At the time, Hunter Biden sat on the board of Burisma, which was having trouble getting regulatory approval for the project, a businessman involved in the project told the newspaper.

'He's not in business with his son,' White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Wednesday of the president. 'He's certainly not aware of this and this is something that Hunter Biden has to speak to. He's a private citizen, it is something for him to focus on.'Pressed on whether Biden was satisfied with how his son conducted himself, Jean-Pierre told reporters: 'I can't speak to this. This is something that is an ongoing process.'John R.
