Understanding Hunter Biden's Pardon
Joe Biden has pardoned his son for all crimes committed between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024. This pardon has been granted unconditionally.

Joe Biden Takes the Biggest U-Turn
Opposition leader in the US claim that political power are controlling the Justice Department. On November 7, the White House had stated that President Joe Biden would not pardon his son.

During the G7 summit in June, he also said that he would follow the jury's decision and would not pardon his son.
So, will the charges against Adani be reversed now?

Donald Trump targeted Biden.
Joe Biden says that the charges against his son were politically motivated and that he is being targeted as a father. On the other hand, Donald Trump strongly criticized Joe Biden, calling the pardon an abuse of justice and even comparing it to abortion.
I believe in the justice system. As soon as I took office, I said I would not interfere in the decisions of the Justice Department. My son has been prosecuted unfairly and politically motivated. Hunter is being targeted just because he is my son.
Joe Biden, US President.
