As you can see, the reporter is interested in the conflict of interest story and that is a story I don't think we want to perpetuate. Interviews in the future might be appropriate, but I don't think they are good for Burisma right now. I'd recommend regretting the interview at this time. If you agree, we at FTI can regret on your behalf.

Greetings!
Congratulations on bringing Mr. R Hunter Biden on your team. This topic, though, has created some controversy in world media.
Ukrainian service of Voice of America would welcome a chance to interview a representative from Burisma Holdings or Mr. Biden directly regarding his role in Burisma and possible conflict of interests. We would like to give objective position on the matter and, possibly, clear up some controversies.
We have TV studios in Washington DC, New York, and London.
Please do not hesitate to contact me, I will be happy to provide any additional information per your request
Best regrads,
