US President Joe Biden has been accused of possessing classified documents. Regarding the allegations, Biden has said that he knows nothing about it.
Biden’s lawyers revealed that the documents were found in his private office belonging to Biden. Lawyers have said that documents related to Ukraine, Iran and the United Kingdom are among those secret documents.
‘I am well aware of the seriousness of a secret document. An investigation is being started. That investigation will have my full support. I don’t know anything about that.’ President Biden said at a press conference in Mexico City, Mexico.
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also joined the press conference. American President Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are participating in the ‘Mexico Summit’ in Mexico City.
Biden and Trudeau are attending the conference at the invitation of Mexican President Lopez. The main objective of the Mexico conference is border security. Mexico, the United States of America and Canada are the nearest countries.
80-year-old Joe Biden is the oldest person to be elected President of the United States. From 2009 to 2017, when Barack Obama was the President of the United States, Joe Biden was the Vice President.
From 2017 to 2019, Biden was a professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania, where he held the university’s Office of Diplomacy and Global Affairs. The secret documents were found when this office was closed. It is said that these confidential documents came into the hands of Biden while he was holding the office of Vice President.
Biden was supposed to turn over the documents when he stepped down as vice president, but it has been alleged that he did not. Yesterday (10), Biden’s lawyers announced that several documents were found in Biden’s office.
According to a statement released by the White House, the State Archives and the Department of Justice will also support the investigation into the allegations. (Reuters)
