An upcoming report by a US special prosecutor criticizes the handling of classified documents by President Joe Biden and his aides, but does not recommend prosecution, the
Washington Post
reported Tuesday .
This highly anticipated text from special prosecutor Robert Hur should be published in the coming days, according to the daily.
Robert Hur was appointed by Justice Minister Merrick Garland last year after documents classified as “top secret” and dating from when Joe Biden was vice-president were found in 2022 in the Democrat's residence in Delaware and in one of its former offices.
Former President Donald Trump, ultra-favorite of the right for the Republican primaries and who should face Joe Biden in the presidential election on November 5, is the target of criminal proceedings for negligent management of confidential documents.
Donald Trump, 77, has pleaded not guilty.
He was indicted federally by another special prosecutor, Jack Smith, and accused of endangering national security by keeping nuclear documents, among other things, after leaving the White House.
The Republican kept these papers - which include Pentagon and CIA files - at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida.
Some were seen sprawled on the ground, according to the indictment.
Concerning the Democratic president, the White House pleaded
“error”
and spoke of documents taken away
“inadvertently”
.
According to the
Washington Post
, there are marked differences between the two surveys.
According to the daily, the number of documents involved in the Biden affair is less than 20, while there are around 300 for Donald Trump.
