While former Vice President Joe Biden oversaw foreign policy in Ukraine, his son Hunter Biden served on the board of Burisma Holdings, the largest gas company in the fledgling democracy.
Despite a recently concluded investigation by Senate Republicans that found no wrongdoing by the Bidens, claims to the contrary have continued to circulate on social media.

Your first sentence seems to suggest that Biden didn't actually threaten to withhold aid, and that I'm engaging in conspiracy theories. Then your next sentence seems to suggest that everyone knows Biden threatened to withhold aid.
You asked if I could say why he threatened to withhold aid. Here's my post you responded to:
"did biden threaten to withhold aid from ukraine unless they fired a prosecutor?"
WDMSO, when you read that sentence, it's not crystal clear why I believe Biden threatened to withhold aid?
You might want to get an MRI.
Biden threatened to withhold national aid to Ukraine, unless they fired a prosecutor we claim was corrupt. It's worth withholding aid to a nation to get rid of one corrupt lawyer?

the international community supported the move to remove . as you say just a lawyer! Which he wasn’t ! He was Prosecutor General of Ukraine or their AG WHO wasn’t prosecuting corruption cases
Shokin wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians, according to a Ukrainian official and four former American officials who specialized in Ukraine and Europe.
Shokin's inaction prompted international calls for his ouster and ultimately resulted in his removal by Ukraine's parliament.
Without pressure from Joe Biden, European diplomats, the International Monetary Fund and other international organizations, Shokin would not have been fired, said Daria Kaleniuk, co-founder and executive director of the Anti Corruption
keep trying to suggest what Biden did and Trump did aka withholding aid from Ukraine .
Are the same. And if that’s not the point your trying to make . Who knows what it is
