Hunter Biden says his father "saved" him several times when he was in a dark place with his addiction battle
Mr Biden was a director on the board of Burisma while Joe Biden was US vice-president and the Obama administration's point man on US-Ukrainian relations. "I know that it is hard to believe with 2020 hindsight how I could possibly have missed that," the 51-year-old told the BBC in an interview. "There's something at the centre of each addict that's missing, that they feel that they need to fill... Nothing can possibly fill it. And so you numb yourself," he said.he said he "descended into a really dark, dark place".
