Ukraine to Review Investigations Into Firm Linked to Biden's Son

Source: Wall Street journal

KYIV—Ukraine’s general prosecutor’s office said Friday it is reviewing past investigations into the owner of a gas company linked to former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s son, raising the possibility of reopening the probes amid pressure from President Trump.

Any steps toward reopening the cases, or implicating Mr. Biden’s son in the process, would be the strongest signal yet from Kyiv that it will abide by Mr. Trump’s entreaties over the past several months to investigate Burisma Group, one of Ukraine’s biggest private gas-production...

That Ukrainian president is officially afraid of Trump, and wants to investigate this company again because he wants millions of dollars and tanks and missiles.

if a Democrat wins the White House in 2020, said Democrat must pressure other countries to investigate Donald Trump's properties and organizations, as well as his daughter and sons.

This will be glommed onto by Trump and the Republican Party which will likely start some senatorial investigations into Biden.

If care and in-depth planning with a concise, concrete message isn’t implemented NOW from the ground up especially in so-called swing states then Trump not only won’t be impeached, he will be re-elected.

And now he'd demanding it in other countries, or else. This will soon escalate to him demanding they find evidence (made up for trump) then find them guilty or he'll abuse his powers to damage them. His demands will grow and they should understand he will hurt them anyway. Trump wants trump justice now around the world to use as a political weapon as he wishes to use against anyone opposing him, or exposing him. Thug trump is just like Putin, and he will if he hasn't already do to opposition, or people who expose him the same way Putin has done. These people are hard core criminals, and the GOP are deeply involved and helping them now. His criminal acts are not only increasing, but getting even more suggestive they'll be worse crimes using violence. He's a ticking time bomb waiting to blow up while the GOP do nothing stopping him.
