Rudy Giuliani in 2006
President Donald Trump‘s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, admitted asking Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden moments after denying the allegation.
During Cuomo Prime Time on CNN, Chris Cuomo questioned Giuliani about conversations he had with a Ukrainian official regarding former Vice President Joe Biden‘s possible role in the dismissal of a prosecutor who had investigated the former vice president’s son’s connection to the Ukrainian natural-gas company Burisma Holdings.
When first asked if he requested the Ukrainian government to investigate Biden, Giuliani replied, “No, actually I didn’t. I asked the Ukraine to investigate the allegations that there was interference in the election of 2016 by the Ukrainians for the benefit of Hillary Clinton.”
Cuomo then followed up to confirm he never asked about Joe Biden or his son, Hunter.

“Of course I did,” said Giuliani.
