’s sitdown with Amy Robach was his first interview since House Democrats launched an impeachment inquiry against Trump. Their inquiry centers on Trump’s July 17 phone call in which he asked the president of Ukraine to investigate the Bidens.
“I gave a hook to some very unethical people to act in illegal ways to try to do harm to my father. That’s where I made the mistake,” Biden said. “So I take full responsibility for that. Did I do anything improper? No, not in any way.” Their claim centers on the idea that Joe Biden pressured Ukraine to fire its chief prosecutor in order to protect his son as the gas company, Burisma, was under investigation. In fact, Biden and a number of world leaders were calling on the prosecutor to be ousted for failing to curb corruption in the country.
He defended his qualifications to serve on the Burisma board, even though he had not experience working for a gas company. He said that he had been vice chairman of the board of Amtrak and was chairman of the board for the World Food Program as well as an attorney for the law firm Boies Schiller Flexner.
