Hunter Biden allegedly paid in Romanian ‘influence’ plot

US prosecutors in Hunter Biden’s tax evasion case have accused him of accepting money from a Romanian oligarch who sought to “influence US government agencies”.

The accusation is part of a larger case against the president’s son, who is charged with evading $1.4m (£1.1m) in taxes between 2016 and 2019 while spending millions on luxury cars, drugs and escorts.

Republicans have long accused Hunter Biden, 54, of “influence peddling”, although Congressional probes have yet to uncover any wrongdoing.
