Russia is going to launch a probe aimed at finding out if the son of the President has financed terrorism.

On April 9, Russia announced its decision to launch an investigation into a Ukraine gas company called Burisma, linking US President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden to allegedly financing terrorism, most notably in connection to the Moscow mass shooting in March.

The probe focuses on an accusation that senior officials from the US and other NATO countries were financing terrorism in Russia and abroad, channeled through Burisma.

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan remarked that the charges were "nonsense" when asked about the Investigation Committee's allegation toward Burisma and the implication that US and NATO officials are supporting terrorism initiatives.

"Russia knows that it was ISIS that carried out the terrorist attack in Moscow."

Hunter Biden had once served on the board of Burisma between 2014 and 2019, overlapping with his father's second term as Vice President.

The conspiracies against the father and son went viral in the US; however, no evidence was ever found to support the unlawful claims associated with Burisma.

The height of its notoriety resulted in former US President Trump's first impeachment charge, when he threatened Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky in July 2019 to cut off US aid unless Zelensky prompted an investigation into both Biden men.
