Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch confirmed that she had been prepared by the Obama administration to answer questions about Hunter Biden’s potential conflicts of interest.

During her impeachment testimony on Friday, Yovanovitch was pressed by Republican New York Rep. Elise Stefanik to explain whether she was aware of Biden’s apparent conflicts of interest in taking a role on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas firm, when his father was leading policy in the region as vice president.
