New National Archives Files Reveal Hunter Biden Helped Plan State Dinners During Dad's VP Days

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - A number of emails obtained from the US National Archives and Records Administration revealed more than 1,000 emails between the office of then-Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden’s advisory firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, America First Legal said in a statement.

“We obtained new docs from our lawsuit against the National Archives revealing over 1,000 emails between Rosemont Seneca and the Office of Vice President,” the statement said on Wednesday.
“The vast majority of these emails consisted of direct communications between Rosemont Seneca employees, including Hunter Biden, and the Office of the Vice President.”
The emails contradict Joe Biden’s claims that there was a wall between personal and government business, the statement said, underscoring that Hunter Biden was "intimately involved in planning for high-profile White House events" despite lacking any official role.
One of the findings revealed that Hunter Biden took part in planning a 2011 luncheon with Chinese officials, arrival ceremony with the then German chancellor, 2012 state dinner with UK dignitaries, 2013 state luncheon with Turkish officials and a state dinner with French officials in 2014.
The “Biden name” was used to gain access to the White House for Rosemont Seneca and their associates, the statement said, detailing a December 2013 incident in which a lobbyist "reached out" to Hunter's business partner for last-minute tickets to a Christmas tour of the White House.
An email obtained from the National Archives further provided a confirmation email that specifically notes tour tickets as being a "big favor for Hunter."

The White House asserted executive privilege to withhold 200 emails entirely to protect confidential talks between the president and his advisers, the statement added.
The newly released emails come amid an investigation by House lawmakers into alleged criminal activity by the Biden family, including foreign bribery and influence peddling.
