(Mike McCormick) Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources Geoffrey Pyatt played a crucial and secretive role in the ObamaBiden Burisma kickback scheme during his time as Obama’s ambassador to Ukraine, Biden Laptop emails reveal.
He should be investigated, indicted, convicted, and jailed for lying about it to Congress and for furthering the conspiracy, which he continues to do from his present post.
It should also be understood that Pyatt’s testimony, were he to flip on his superiors, would be damning for a score of corrupt Democrats from John Kerry to Joe to potentially Barack Obama.
During his September 22, 2020, interview with investigators from the Senate Homeland Security Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC,) Pyatt stated he worked closely with Joe Biden and ultimately reported to President Obama through Assistant Secretary Victoria Nuland and Secretary of State John Kerry.
And here’s a screenshot of the portion of the interview in which he is warned of the consequences of lying to the senators and staffers conducting the interview.
And here’s another screenshot in which he declares unequivocally that he had no association with Hunter Biden or Ukrainian natural gas conglomerate Burisma Holdings or even knowledge of Hunter’s activities as a Burisma board member until late 2015 — the time of Joe Biden’s fateful trip to Kyiv to force the firing of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.
Here’s another one in which he’s even more definitive in his denial that Burisma ever benefited from anything he, Joe, or Obama did.
And here’s the first of many Biden Laptop emails that prove Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt lied under oath when he made those statements. This is an email dated May 2015 concerning a letter from Burisma written specifically to Ambassador Pyatt, which was passed through Hunter Biden’s business partner Devon Archer by Burisma executive Vadym Pozharskyi.
May is not late in the year, it’s early. Granted this is only an email about a letter written to Ambassador Pyatt, but, of course, there’s more.
Here’s a screenshot of another email from Pozharskyi written several months later, early November. In this one, Pozharskyi is quite clear he wants Hunter to get senior administration officials on the job to “close down for any cases/pursuits against Nickolay [Zlochevsky] in Ukraine.”
Nickolay and Mykola are two versions of the same name. I’ve always used Mykola, so I’ll stick with that version to identify Mykola Zlochevsky. The “BS engagement” refers to a contract between Burisma and Blue Star Strategies for government affairs work or lobbying. Hunter recommended Burisma retain Blue Star Strategies. This email is Pozharskyi demanding of Hunter what he expects from “BS.”
Zlochevsky, the oligarch founder of Burisma Holdings, is alleged to have bribed Joe and Hunter Biden $5 million each, as revealed in an FBI FD-1023 form recently released by Senator Chuck Grassley. I see this email as actually Zlochevsky, through Pozharskyi, demanding of Hunter a return for his bribe.
Note that Pozharskyi focused specifically on the ability of the U.S. Ambassador to thwart Prosecutor General Shokin’s investigation into Zlochevsky. He spelled out quite clearly he expected “high-ranking US officials in Ukraine (US Ambassador.)” That was Pyatt who, according to his testimony, had no knowledge whatsoever of Hunter’s Burisma activities until he learned about it in the media after Joe traveled to Ukraine in 2015.
But here was Zlochevsky’s fixer requesting Pyatt. And that wasn’t all. Note this paragraph: “The scope of the work should also include organization of a visit of a number of widely recognized and influential current or former U.S. policymakers to Ukraine in November aiming to conduct meetings and bring positive signal/message and support to Nickolay’s issue to the Ukrainian top officials …”
In other words, he’s demanding Hunter and this Blue Star Strategies team deliver a Joe Biden trip to Ukraine in four weeks to fire Shokin.
And that’s almost exactly what he got. Joe Biden went to Kyiv and engineered Shokin’s dismissal on December 7th-8th, 2015. So five weeks later, not four.
But there’s more. On November 30th, 2015, one week before Joe Biden arrived in Kyiv to fire General Prosecutor Shokin, a very pleased Pozharskyi let Joe know, through Hunter, what a great job Ambassador Pyatt was doing for their kickback scheme.
