Fox News rejected a request by the campaign of former Vice President Joe Biden not to run an advertisement from President Donald Trump’s campaign that targets Biden’s involvement with Ukraine.

Biden last year bragged that he threatened to withhold $1 billion in aid in 2016 unless then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko ousted the country’s top prosecutor. That prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, was probing Burisma at the time. Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, was paid by Burisma from 2014 through 2019.
