'If you're sitting with a foreign business person and you hear the vice president's voice, that's prize enough,' Archer said.
released Wednesday, Archer said he believed that the letter, which has been public for months, was merely intended to be a"nice gesture" toward him as the younger Biden began building out a consulting business that included Burisma as a client, rather than any explicit acknowledgment of a professional relationship.
However, Archer acknowledged that Hunter Biden may have abused that relationship by invoking his father during business meetings in efforts to woo prospective clients, calling it"an abuse of soft power." Devon Archer, a former business associate of Hunter Biden, arrives for closed-door testimony with the House Oversight Committee at the O'Neill House Office Building on July 31, 2023, in Washington, D.C. The former Burisma official at the center of a congressional investigation into business deals involving President Joe Biden's son broke his silence on a recently released letter from the then vice president.
Though Joe Biden previously claimed he had no knowledge of his son's business dealings, Archer—who is slated to go to prison forin 2018—alleged in closed-door congressional testimony this week that the elder Biden had direct knowledge of those deals, including one episode in which he was dialed in to a business meeting involving other members of Burisma's board.
In his interview with Carlson, Archer claimed that his willingness to work with the younger Biden was largely based around his connections to the then vice president, saying he believed entering into business with him at the time was"a great opportunity for us."
