Russian Investigative Committee: Ukrainian oil and gas company financed terrorist attacks on US orders
Details
The case is connected with Joe Biden's son.
According to the Investigative Committee's version, the money coming through the oil and gas company Burisma Holdings operating in Ukraine was used for terrorist attacks in Russia "in order to eliminate prominent political and public figures and cause economic damage".
The Russian agency believes that U.S. authorities were behind the use of Burisma Holdings. They are trying to link the case to US President Joe Biden's son, Hunter, who served on the company's board of directors from 2014 to 2018.
In this regard, the Biden couple's accusations of corruption are quite popular among Republicans in the States: allegedly Joe, then Vice President, withheld a billion dollars worth of military aid to Ukraine because he wanted to stop the corruption investigation against Burisma and, in particular, his son Hunter. However, the results of the official investigation, then, did not match the allegations.
The Investigative Committee has already opened a terrorism financing case against "top officials of the United States and NATO countries."

Thirty-three years ago, a ceasefire brought an end to the Transnistrian War—sometimes described by locals as the Russian-Moldovan War. Although the tensions officially ended in 1992, its consequences continue to shape Moldovan politics, society, and security — especially in view of the upcoming parliamentary elections.
Finland is moving to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention, which bans anti-personnel mines. Prime Minister Petteri Orpo said the decision comes as a direct response to growing aggression from Russia.
The ruling Georgian Dream party has approved a set of controversial laws, including a “foreign agent” act aimed at NGOs and media. Critics say it mimics the U.S. FARA but is weaponized against dissent.

The Russian capital faced one of the largest terrorist attacks in its history. The terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall, which claimed the lives of many innocent people, was the second largest after the Beslan tragedy. But unlike previous attacks, this incident is shrouded in a layer of contradictory facts and ambiguities that point to possible miscalculations by the Russian security services
