White House press secretary Jen Psaki attempted to dismiss a reporter's question Friday when he asked about the “conflicts of interest” the Biden administration faces 'when it comes to sanctioning people who have done business with' the Biden family.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki speaks during a press briefing at the White House, Friday, March 18, 2022, in Washington.
"This Elena Baturina, she has not been sanctioned yet by the U.S. government. How is President Biden navigating conflicts of interest when it comes to sanctioning people who have done business with this family and can you explain to us what this $3.5 million was for," Nelson asked. "I don't have any confirmation of the accuracy of that report, so I have no more further details," Psaki responded, moving to call on other reporters in the room.
Pressed once more about the conflicts of interest in sanctioning those in Russia who reportedly have had business dealings with the Biden family, Psaki said,"What would be his conflicts of interest?""Which I have no confirmation of, and he's continued to sanction oligarchs more than we've sanctioned in the past, so I'm not sure that's a conflict of interest," Psaki responded.
The New York Times confirmed the Hunter Biden laptop story that was largely written off by mainstream news outlets as disinformation when the New York Post first reported it ahead of the 2020 presidential election.
