Ruslan Riaboshapka said prosecutors would review the case of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company that Hunter Biden once sat on the board of.
"We are reviewing all cases opened by the previous prosecutor's office," Riaboshapka said when asked specifically about Burisma on Friday."We will conduct an audit of previous cases including the one you mentioned." But the investigations did not produce any prosecutions, and there is no evidence of wrongdoing by either Biden, nor that Hunter Biden himself was ever under investigation.
Shokin was widely faulted for declining to bring prosecutions of elites' corruption, and he was even accused of hindering corruption investigations. His deputy, Vitaliy Kasko, resigned in February 2016, alleging that Shokin's office was itself corrupt, and Ukraine's legislature voted to fire Shokin the following month.
