Joe Biden's son Hunter still has a stake in a Chinese private equity firm, according to a report - despite a campaign pledge that neither he nor his family would maintain any foreign business interests.
In October 2019, while on the campaign trail, Joe Biden stated: 'No one in my family will have an office in the White House, will sit in on meetings as if they are a cabinet member, will have any business relationship with anyone that relates to a foreign corporation or a foreign country.
Hunter Biden sat on the board of BHR.He was making a dig at his predecessor Donald Trump, who hired daughter Ivanka and son-in law Jared Kushner as senior White House advisers.
Hunter Biden said at that time that he was stepping down from the board of the company.
Hunter Biden's business dealings have long caused his father headaches, amid accusations that the troubled Harvard-educated lawyer was trading off his family name.
Hunter had business interest in Ukraine, China and Kazakhstan, leading to concern about influence peddling.
Joe Biden has denied having any knowledge of his son's work.
