In the vote held in the US House of Representatives, 212 Democrats voted “no” while 221 Republican MPs voted “yes”. With the vote in question, the impeachment process that Republicans have been carrying out against Biden for a while, alleging that he gave his son Hunter Biden an advantage in business relations, became official.
“TOTALLY POLITICAL AND BASELESS”
Making a statement on the issue after the vote in the House of Representatives, Biden argued that the process was completely political and unfounded from the very beginning.
While the impeachment investigation to be carried out by the House of Representatives is expected to continue throughout 2024, when the presidential elections will be held, predictions that it may evolve into a political process against the Democratic presidential candidate are also reflected in the American media.
Republicans in Congress, on the other hand, argue that the ties between Biden and his son Hunter Biden’s business relations should be investigated.
The impeachment investigation against US President Biden is expected to be one of the most important topics of discussion in the presidential race.
If Biden is accused of impeachment as a result of the investigation in the House of Representatives, the vote in the Senate will determine the fate of the Democratic president.
