Hunter Biden and then-business partner Devon Archer were each pocketing $1 million each year from Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings beginning in the spring of 2014. Their hiring coincided with then-Vice President Joseph R. Biden’s new role as the Obama administration’s point person on Ukraine.

Archer and Hunter Biden were elevated to the Burisma board shortly after Mr. Biden’s inaugural trip to Kyiv to lead the administration’s diplomatic efforts.

According to Archer’s testimony to House investigators, his role and Hunter Biden’s role at Burisma was to help the company expand business operations, partly by establishing a buffer against a growing corruption investigation. Burisma wanted help from influential people in Washington, namely Hunter Biden’s father, the vice president.

The timeline of actions of Mr. Biden, the Obama administration and Hunter Biden raises questions about whether Mr. Biden ultimately sought to push out Mr. Shokin to help his son and Burisma.
