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". Republicans have long accused Hunter Biden, 54, of "influence peddling", although Congressional probes have yet to uncover any wrongdoing. In the filing, prosecutors said they plan to introduce evidence that Hunter Biden and an associate "received compensation from a foreign principal who was attempting to influence US policy and public opinion" and prompt the US "to investigate the Romanian investigation of GP". Republicans in the House of Representatives - who last year opened an impeachment inquiry into the Biden family's foreign business ties - had previously raised concerns about ties between Hunter Biden and Popoviciu. The latest claims against Hunter Biden come less than two months after he was found guilty on all three charges in a federal gun trial held in Delaware.
